Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
If someone in Derry wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following guidelines: 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, restrictions and qualification requirements and these change every year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
