Can an audiologist or speech-language pathologist provide and bill for school-based services?
Yes. Both schools and individual practitioners within schools may be certified as Medicaid providers if they meet state provider qualifications. School districts sign a provider agreement that enrolls it with the State’s Medicaid program. The agreement establishes the rate of payment, the protocol for submission of bills, privacy issues and other details. States may establish liaisons between State Medicaid programs and educational agencies.
