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

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, 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 facilities 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If a person in Nicolaus wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
