Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Pearl, MS.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At facilities 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 screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If someone in Pearl wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years old 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 vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
