SUMMARY:Medicaid 101 Webinar
DESCRIPTION:As the single largest source of health coverage for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (CYSCHN)\, with robust benefits and cost-sharing limits\, Medicaid provides critical coverage of health care services to CYSHCN. State Title V programs are uniquely positioned to collaborate with Medicaid to promote access to the system of services for CYSHCN. The Catalyst Center is hosting a webinar on June 14\, 2022\, at 3 pm ET (12 pm PT) that will present foundational knowledge about Medicaid for Title V staff and their allies. Catalyst Center staff will explain the basics of Medicaid including the eligibility pathways to Medicaid coverage for kids\, and a benefit unique to Medicaid called EPSDT that is crucial for access to care for CYSHCN. This webinar is open to the public.
