Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play an important role in the reimbursements of drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid holders will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all facilities will take 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 intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
