Some individuals in Lubbock are covered by a form of health coverage referred to as Medicaid. This type of health insurance coverage is offered to men and women who are considered unable to cover the costs of their own health coverage, and other eligibility requirements for the Medicaid program involve other factors such as the number of children in their care and other income sources such as child support. If someone that is struggling with addiction is covered by Medicaid many drug and alcohol treatment plans are covered as part of this form of insurance coverage. Many alcohol and/or drug rehab programs in the Lubbock area accept Medicaid, and individuals can speak with drug treatment facilities in their area or speak with their primary care doctor to check out which drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities prepared to accept them.
