Medicaid is an insurance program for low-income families that because of the Affordable Care Act must provide insurance coverage for basic drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid is currently the single largest payer for mental health treatment services in the country, and is beginning to play an important role in the reimbursements of treatment for drug and alcohol treatment. Medicaid subscribers will want to take into account that while this is the case, not all rehab programs will take Medicaid. At facilities which do accept 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. Services covered by Medicaid consist of screenings, intervention, counseling, medication maintenance, detox, inpatient, long-term residential, outpatient and mental health services.
