| Abstract: | This guide is intended to help schools develop linkages with the federal Medicaid program, particularly the Early and Periodic, Screening, Diagnostic, and Treatment (EPSDT) program, a comprehensive and preventive health care system for Medicaid-eligible individuals up to age 21. The guide aims to: (1) acquaint schools with State Medicaid agencies and the EPSDT program; (2) discuss how schools can develop or augment EPSDT outreach and health service programs; (3) direct schools to additional sources of information; and (4) illustrate some different types of linkages between schools and the EPSDT program. Chapter 1 introduces the EPSDT program, while chapter 2 describes the program in more detail and outlines the services that the program provides. Chapters 3 and 4 focus on school roles in EPSDT, including outreach case management and service delivery. Chapter 5 reviews examples of successful partnerships between local educational systems and EPSDT programs, and highlights the school's role in conducting outreach activities, screening, and providing a full range of services. Two appendixes provide lists of regional and state contact persons and agencies at the federal and state level that help administer the EPSDT program. (MDM) |
