Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Columbia Heights, MN.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Columbia Heights wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, 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) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
