Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Sherard, MS.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol treatment. 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At facilities 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, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If a person in Sherard wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
