Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover basic substance abuse treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to bear in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities which do take Medicaid, individuals 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
