Medicaid - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Newton, NH.

Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept 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. Services covered by Medicaid include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

If an individual in Newton wants to get Medicaid to pay for treatment, they must meet the following criteria: 1) Be over 65 years old or under 19 years old 2) be pregnant or a parent and 3) fit within a specified income bracket. Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these change every year. So, a person who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year just might qualify this year.
