Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Swarthmore wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, limitations and qualification requirements and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
