Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Portola Valley, CA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If someone in Portola Valley is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
