Providers that will take Medicaid in NY (not nyc)?

We Answered:

You need to call Medicaid and ask THEM for the list of local providers.

It's HARD to find some of these providers - most providers won't take medicaid, because the reimbursement rates are so low. You're probably not going to be able to "pick and choose" - it's very possible that Samaritan is the ONLY place with any mental health providers in your area.

ya know, beggars can't be choosers. Welfare health insurance just doesn't have many providers or choices. Remember this, because when your politicians ask you to vote for "universal health care" or "government health care", that's exactly the same thing. It's NOT going to give you more providers.

Can you get both unemployment benefits AND medicaid?

We Answered:

In NY, you have to meet the federal guideline for disability unless you also have children in the household. Chances are if there are no children, he will not qualify. But he can still get care at any county medical facility or clinic and what he pays will be based on his income. or ability to pay.
