Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Mount Airy, MD.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If a person in Mount Airy wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, 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) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
