Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is starting to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid holders will want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid. At facilities which do take 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 recipients. Services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.
