Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Patrick AFB, FL.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If an individual in Patrick AFB wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following guidelines: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fall within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own rules, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
