Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health services in the country, and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At facilities 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
