Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Sylvania, AL.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If a person in Sylvania is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
