Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must cover standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is beginning to play an important 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 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
If a person in Tewksbury is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehabilitation, they must satisfy the following criteria: 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 rules, limitations and qualification requisites and these change each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
