Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Hamilton, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If someone in Hamilton is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requirements and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year just might qualify this year.
