Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol treatment. 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 substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders may want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehab programs accept Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
