Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Brandywine, MD.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently 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 subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If someone in Brandywine 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) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
