Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Borderland, WV.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept Medicaid, clients won't have co-payments in most states. For states which do charge co-pays, there are limits to the out-of-pocket expenses for subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If a person in Borderland is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
