Question by twineclipse: Where can I find an inpatient substance abuse rehab that still takes Medicaid?
I live in West Palm Beach, FL and am currently fighting an addiction to crystal meth that has gotten so bad it requires inpatient rehab. I have Medicaid but cannot find any rehabs that take Medicaid anymore. The rehab doesnt have to be in Fla… I just want so desperately to find one. Can anyone help?

Here are a few places that accept medicaid that are inpatient.
Rocky Mountain Health care Center
2201 Downing Street
Denver CO,
(303) 861-4825
http://www.startingplace.org (located in Florida accepts Medicaid)
this is a great resource for substance abuse treatment available to people with medicaid and what is approved and what medicaid will cover per year in all 50 states.

I would also contact your DHS office and talk to them most hospitals accept medicaid so if you needed to check yourself into a hospital and they will assist you with getting into a program that Medicaid will cover, also many places offer financial assistance to help cover some costs if not all costs.
contact your local case worker or health department.. also go to a web search and type in rehabs/ what ever your area is and that might help u find what u need.. GOOD LUCK to you
