Many persons in Howard are covered under a form of health insurance referred to as Medicaid. This type of health insurance is available to people who are considered low-income, and other eligibility requirements for the Medicaid program typically include other things such as the number of dependents and other sources of income such as child support. If an individual that is addicted to drugs is covered by Medicaid many drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs are covered under this form of coverage. Several drug treatment programs in the Howard area will work with Medicaid, and people may contact drug rehab facilities in their area or consult with their primary care providers to see which drug and alcohol rehab centers are available to them.
