Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - St. Pete Beach, FL.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind 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, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If an individual in St. Pete Beach wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must satisfy 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
