Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Elk Creek, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Elk Creek is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill 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 specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
