Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to 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 a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. 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, 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If an individual in Okeechobee wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill 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, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
