Can parents be case managers for their own children and be reimbursed?
If Medicaid will be involved in payment, no. Medicaid does not allow payments to parents of minor children. If the child is an adult, all case management requirements apply including case load levels. If Medicaid will not be billed, the parent can substitute for agency case management as a “natural support” to avoid charges under the fee schedule established by the agency providing case management.
