Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lancaster, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If someone in Lancaster wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must satisfy the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old 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 rules, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
