Medicaid is an insurance option for low-income families that due to the Affordable Care Act they are required to cover standard substance abuse rehabilitation services. Medicaid is presently the single largest payer for mental health services in the U.S., and is beginning to play a significant role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers may want to keep in mind that while this is the case, not all facilities will take Medicaid. At rehabilitation programs 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 subscribers. Rehabilitation services covered by Medicaid consist of 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 change every year. So, a person who didn't get accepted for Medicaid in their state in the previous year may be approved this year.
