About Medicaid
Medicaid is the joint federal and state health program for people with limited income, including children, pregnant women, adults, older adults and people with disabilities. Each state runs its own, so what is covered, and the health plans that run it, differ by state. In most states, most members are in a managed care plan with its own list of programs.
What Medicaid usually covers, by level of care
Levels of care
Addiction treatment runs from detox and residential care, where you stay at the program, to PHP, IOP and outpatient counseling, where you live at home. Medication for addiction (MAT) can go with any of them. See IOP vs PHP vs outpatient care.
Call the program, then the member services number on your Medicaid card: most Medicaid members are in a managed care health plan, and the program has to be in that plan's network.
Call a program and ask
Call the program and ask them to verify your benefits; it's free and takes a few minutes.
- Do you accept Medicaid for substance use treatment, and for which levels of care?
- Are you in network for my exact plan, and is prior authorization needed?
- What would I pay a day or a week, and when is the next opening for an assessment?
Call the program yourself: Find Care doesn't take your insurance details, collect your name or pass anything to a program for you. This is general information, not a guarantee of coverage. What your plan pays depends on your plan, your state, whether the program is in network, and whether your plan decides the care is medically necessary. Call the number on your card, then the program, before you start.
