Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers may want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
If someone in Somerville wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy 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 specific income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, limitations and qualification requisites and these vary every year. So, someone who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
