Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take Medicaid, individuals 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
If an individual in Norton wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
