Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If a person in North Fort Myers wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
