What's covered

Idaho Medicaid covers individual therapy, psychiatric medication management, group therapy, and (in most cases) intensive outpatient programs. Coverage is typically robust, with no copay or very low copay.

Finding a provider

Not all therapists accept Medicaid, but Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and Community Mental Health Centers do. Search your state's Medicaid MCO provider directory.
