Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that due to the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to consider that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers will take Medicaid. At rehab centers 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 include screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.

Each state also has their own rules, limitations and eligibility requisites and these vary each year. So, an individual who didn't qualify for Medicaid in their state last year may be approved this year.
