Medicaid Fee Schedule 2013

(1/2) > >>

James B:
We have a lot of Medicare patients but are non-par with Medicaid. The provider heard that their fee schedule was increased greatly and asked me to get the fee schedule for Connecticut. I am not having any luck on the CMS site. I am only able to find information on Medicare reimbursements. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Do you know that Medicare payments to doctors will be reduced 2% for Dates of Service starting on April 1, 2013?  Read this:

James B:
Thank you, Richard. That was helpful--I definitely prefer the MAC site. However, having never dealt with Medicaid before I am still confused by the difference between Medicaid and Medicare reimbursements. I know the difference between Medicare and Medicaid but I don't understand how to figure out Medicaid reimbursements. Every search for Medicaid brings me to Medicare. Thanks!

RichardP:
I think this is the page you need, but it seems that you need to create a provider account and log in.

James B:
Thank you very much, Richard. I really appreciate it.

Perhaps if I had added Husky (that's what they call state insurance here in CT, now) to Medicaid Fee Schedule in my original internet search I could have found this  ;)
