Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Baker, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehab centers which do accept 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Baker is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, 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, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
