Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to bear in mind 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 consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Slidell wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must fulfill 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, restrictions and eligibility requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
