Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to 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 beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
