Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehab centers which do take Medicaid, clients 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 consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
