Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If a person in Alameda is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might be approved this year.
