Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Dorris, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If a person in Dorris wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, 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) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
