Medicaid Coverage

Medicaid is a type of health insurance which is accessible to people in certain low-income tax brackets.

Medicaid may even cover the costs associated with drug or alcohol rehabilitation, and there are many drug and alcohol rehab facilities throughout the country which are covered through Medicaid.

Individuals who have Medicaid should explore which programs cover the greatest amount of treatment for the most amount of time to acquire the full benefits of such a program.
