Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - South Hamilton, MA.

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

If someone in South Hamilton wants to get Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age 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 guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
