Get the Latest Data on Medicaid
Benefit Coverage for Adults in Each State, including Behavioral Health
Services
Federal Medicaid rules grant
states flexibility to design their own benefit packages beyond
meeting core federal requirements. KFF recently surveyed Medicaid directors
in all 50 states and the District of Columbia to identify those benefits covered
for categorically needy traditional adult beneficiaries in their
fee-for-service programs. Our updated Medicaid Benefits Database includes data about the
various benefits covered in states, notable limits on those benefits, and
cost sharing requirements as of July 1, 2018. Data from previous years
(generally 2012 and earlier) is also accessible. Also available for the first
time is another database that includes data on Medicaid coverage of a range
of behavioral health services, by state, at KFF’s Medicaid Behavioral Health Services Database.
The databases should be useful for Medicaid
officials, researchers, patient advocates and journalists trying to
understand the variation across states in Medicaid benefits such as dental coverage,
private duty nursing services and treatment for opioid addiction.
Filling the need for trusted information on
national health issues, the Kaiser Family Foundation is a
nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, California.
