The Medicaid Dollars Oregon Districts May Be Leaving on the Table

A lot of Oregon districts are already providing health services every day and wondering whether the reimbursement is worth chasing. Panelists from Relay and Willamette ESD talked it through in plain language, with room for questions along the way.

In this session we covered:

• Why school-based Medicaid has stayed steady for decades, and how to tell the difference between broader Medicaid headlines and what affects schools.

• Why Oregon is a different kind of starting point. You can bill for students who are not on an IEP, so nursing, behavioral health, and personal care are all on the table, and you can start outside special education if that is easier.

• What it takes to get your first claim out the door, including parental consent, provider enrollment, and rate setting, plus how providers can keep documenting in the system they already use.
