Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to 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 services in the country, and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Wiggins wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old 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, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
