Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Avalon, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Avalon wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
