Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Sheffield, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders may want to consider 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If a person in Sheffield is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following guidelines: 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 eligibility requirements and these change each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
