Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Terry, MS.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If an individual in Terry wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must satisfy the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
