Medicaid - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - East Waterboro, ME.

Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities 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 screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

If someone in East Waterboro is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for rehab, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years of age or under 19 years of age 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 in the previous year may be approved this year.
