Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must cover basic substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a considerable role in the reimbursements of substance abuse treatment services. Medicaid subscribers 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 subscribers. Services covered by Medicaid include intervention, screenings, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, outpatient, long-term residential and mental health services.

Each state also has their own guidelines, restrictions and eligibility requirements and these vary each year. So, someone who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may qualify this year.
