What Medicaid covers

93%of Ohio programs

Ohio expanded Medicaid, so adults with low income can qualify. Ohio Medicaid covers detox, outpatient and intensive outpatient care, medication for opioid use disorder and medically necessary residential treatment.

Medicaid pays the program directly, so there is no bill up front. Where Ohio Medicaid charges copays, federal rules keep them small. In many states Medicaid is run through managed care plans, and a program can be in network with one plan and not another.

98 detox units and 279 programs offering medication for opioid use take Medicaid here. If you are not enrolled yet, many programs help you apply, and publicly funded programs can start care meanwhile.

Programs by level of care

Of the 695 programs, 98 offer detox, 124 residential care, 647 outpatient care and 279 medication for opioid use disorder.

Questions to ask before you go

  1. Do you take my Medicaid plan, not just Medicaid?

    Give the name of your managed care plan; network contracts are plan by plan.
  2. Do I need an assessment or referral first?

    Many Medicaid-funded programs start with an assessment that sets the level of care.
  3. Is there an opening, and how long is the wait?

    Ask about interim services, such as counseling or medication, while you wait.
  4. Is detox included, or is it a separate admission?

    Some programs refer detox elsewhere and admit you after.
  5. What comes after the program?

    Ask about step-down to outpatient care and help with housing or work.

If your Medicaid plan says no

  1. Read the notice.

    The plan must send a written notice that explains the decision and your appeal rights.
  2. Appeal to the plan within 60 days.

    Under the federal Medicaid managed care rules you have 60 days from the notice. If waiting could seriously harm your health, ask for an expedited appeal, decided within 72 hours.
  3. Ask for a state fair hearing.

    If the plan upholds the denial, you can ask the state for a fair hearing, generally within 120 days of the appeal decision.

Not sure where to start?

Ask each program whether it takes your Medicaid plan.
