Telehealth Psychiatric Care That Accepts Medicaid in New York

Finding a psychiatric provider who takes Medicaid can feel like calling down a list that never ends. At Neurean Psychiatry, we accept straight New York State Medicaid and Emblem Medicaid. That means adults across New York can get medication management and therapy from a board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioner, from home.

What “straight Medicaid” means

Straight Medicaid, also called fee-for-service Medicaid, is coverage paid directly by New York State. It is different from Medicaid managed care plans run by private insurers. If your Medicaid card comes from the state and not a health plan, you likely have straight Medicaid. Not sure? Call us at (516) 774-2521 and we’ll help you check.

What Medicaid covers here

  • Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation
  • Medication management and follow-up visits
  • Psychotherapy sessions
  • Medication de-prescribing, when a medication is no longer helping
