Not every rehab program takes Medicaid, and what Medicaid covers depends on your state. The counts below come from the payment details programs report in our directory. We list state-financed insurance separately, because those plans aren't Medicaid and have their own rules.

What to Check Before You Go

Ask the program whether it takes your specific Medicaid plan, not just Medicaid in general.
Ask which services are covered. State Medicaid programs cover addiction treatment to different degrees, including detox, residential care, outpatient programs and medication for opioid use disorder.
If you don't have coverage yet, apply now. If you don't qualify, SAMHSA's National Helpline can refer you to state-funded or sliding-scale programs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do all rehabs accept Medicaid?

No. About 71% of the programs in our directory (9,753 of 13,656) say they accept Medicaid. Always confirm with the program, since the plans a program takes can change.

What addiction treatment does Medicaid cover?

It depends on the state. State Medicaid programs cover addiction treatment to different degrees, so detox, residential care, outpatient programs and medication for opioid use disorder may or may not all be covered where you live.

What if a program takes a state insurance plan instead of Medicaid?

6,868 programs in our directory accept a state-financed health insurance plan other than Medicaid. We list those separately because they are different programs with their own eligibility rules.

What if I don't have Medicaid or other insurance?

SAMHSA's National Helpline is free, and it can refer people without insurance to their state office for state-funded treatment, or to programs that charge on a sliding fee scale. You can also search FindTreatment.gov, SAMHSA's treatment locator.
