Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently 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 take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At rehab centers 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. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and behavioral health services.
