Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Chunky, MS.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable 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 will take 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If someone in Chunky wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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, limitations and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
