Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
