Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - New Salem, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant 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 rehabilitation centers accept 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 intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If a person in New Salem wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following criteria: 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 rules, limitations and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
