Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - La Quinta, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. 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 substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If an individual in La Quinta 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) fit within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
