Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income households that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is currently 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 subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities accept 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 recipients. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, medication maintenance, counseling, inpatient, detox, outpatient, long-term residential and behavioral health services.
