Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Baltimore, OH.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take 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 consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Baltimore is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following guidelines: 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 change every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
