Oklahoma Medicaid: How to apply, eligibility and what s changing

Here’s what you need to know about who’s eligible and how to apply. What’s changing with Medicaid in Oklahoma? Last year, Oklahoma voters passed State Question 802, which expanded Medicaid eligibility to include many low-income adults. Oklahoma’s Medicaid program, called SoonerCare, has covered children, pregnant women, elderly adults and disabled people. Under the expanded eligibility guidelines, over 200,000 more people will be eligible for coverage, according to the Oklahoma Health Care Authority, which oversees the program. “It’s been nearly one year since Oklahomans voted to expand SoonerCare, giving access to affordable quality health care to more Oklahomans than ever before,” Kevin Corbett, CEO of the Oklahoma Health Care Authority, said in a statement. “We look forward to welcoming and serving these new members on SoonerCare, and helping Oklahoma become a Top 10 state for positive health outcomes.”

Project: Safe receives two grants to support mental health services

Project: Safe receives two grants to support mental health services The Shawnee News-Star Project: SAFE, a nonprofit provider of services in Pottawatomie and Lincoln counties for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, has received two grants totaling $12,000 to support mental health assistance for its clients and staff. The grants were made through a collaboration between the Avedis Foundation and Oklahoma Complete Health and will increase access to quality mental health services for Project: SAFE clients who may be unable to afford co-pays or sliding scale fees. “Many of the clients we see at Project: SAFE require specialized clinical services such as trauma-informed, sexual assault treatment, but this option can seem like a distant and lofty expense to victims,” stated Rachael Sain, Assistant Executive Director for Project: SAFE. “With the assistance of the grant, Project: SAFE will be able to help our clients overcome this financial burden and acce

Most of SoonerCare may be privatized by mid-year

OKLAHOMA CITY â If Gov. Kevin Stitt can follow through with his plans, the stateâs Medicaid recipients may find themselves dealing with private companies in the future. Medicaid benefits in Oklahoma are dispersed through SoonerCare. Stitt wants to privatize SoonerCare, and officials including Secretary of Health Kevin Corbett say the controversial effort was spurred by Oklahoma votersâ insistence that the state accept the federal Medicaid expansion. On Jan. 29, state officials awarded $2.1 billion in health insurance contracts and the bulk of Oklahomaâs Medicaid program to Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma, Humana Healthy Horizons, Oklahoma Complete Health â a subsidiary of Centene â and United Healthcare. They become effective Oct. 1.
