RiteCare qualifying plans

Raymond Zarlengo's picture

I see the most recent posting by Dr. Gorelick. May we, as all pediatricians reading this forum, be informed on exactly what patients fall under the Medicaid rules? I am assuming it is EDS, Neighborhood Health Plans, United RiteCare, and BlueChip RiteCare. Am I correct? And does RiteShare count as well?

Per Medicaid, RI does not have a distinguishable CHIP program in that it is inclusive to RIteCare and thus the patient volume from RiteCare can be counted as Medicaid.
