Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Shelby, MT.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs which do accept 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 intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Shelby is interested in getting Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet 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, restrictions and qualification requisites and these vary each year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may qualify this year.
