Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Glenn Dale, MD.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Glenn Dale wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet 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 specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
