Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - South Boston, MA.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do take 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.

If an individual in South Boston is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must fulfill the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old 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 eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state last year just might be approved this year.
