Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Atwater, MN.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families 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 U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Atwater wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility 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.
