Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lake Alfred, FL.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities 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 intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Lake Alfred wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 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, limitations and eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
