Once again, "ObamaCare" is not some sort of insurance plan. It's a regulatory framework, combined with an expansion of Medicaid.

All the provisions of ObamaCare apply whether you are employed or not; if you are unemployed, your income will drop, so it will almost certainly change your options as to the cost of obtaining coverage. You (and possibly your family) may now qualify for either free (Medicaid) coverage, or subsidized coverage from the state-run Exchanges. Note that becoming unemployed is considered a "Qualifying Event", so a person who loses their job can immediately buy insurance off an Exchange, even if it is not during the normal Open Enrollment period of time.

Once again, all of this is based on your total household income, and not specifically if you are unemployed.

Does obamacare cover methadone clinics?

ObamaCare is NOT a plan, thus it doesn't "cover" any particular activity. However, it does specify minimum required levels of coverage for a variety of services that any plan must offer. From the details I can find, a Methadone Clinic would fall under substance abuse/recovery/rehabilitation. The PPACA now requires both Mental Health and Substance Abuse disorders to be covered at the same level as normal medical procedures. So, the answer appears to be YES, that Obamacare requires your insurance plan to cover methadone clinic services in the same way it would cover a broken arm.
