They should not use any special practices. Medicaid patients should be treated the same as any other patient. The billing is handled the same as any other insurance billing :))) Mia♥

Qualified Medicaid Eye Doctors?
Eye doctors treat people who have eye problems. Some treatments are more simple, such as prescribing corrective lenses. Eye doctors also treat patients who have more serious problems, such as cataracts or glaucoma. Medicaid eye doctors can treat indigent patients who cannot afford their own health care, and therefore receive Medicaid benefits. Medicaid does not pay for elective procedures, so a Medicaid doctor will not perform treatments such as LASIK surgery. You can ask various medical support groups for a referral to a qualified Medicaid eye doctor.
