Guest guest Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 Family practitioner doing psychotherapy? Medicaid paying for it? I have never heard of either, at least not in Ohio where I am. I know for a fact that OH Medicaid does not pay for any psychotherapy, whether done by a psychologist or an FP.

They reimburse VERY well for psychotherapy, unlike any other insurance I've found. The only glitch is that you just have to attend a day conference on how to bill, because it is a little different...or like I recommended on the phone - use that biller who should already know this stuff! > -- > Rothe DO > 379 Piney Branch Way > Burnsville, NC 28714 > (828)273-2889 > > > > > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
