Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Echo, MN.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehab centers which do take 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 include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If someone in Echo wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
