Navigating Medicaid coverage for Spravato is like playing a rigged game where the rules keep changing, and nobody tells you what they actually are. If you’ve already made a few phone calls, you’ve probably been transferred to five different departments, heard three different answers, and landed back where you started—frustrated, exhausted, and no closer to getting the treatment you need.

This guide cuts through the red tape and gives you the strategies, scripts, and insider knowledge to get Spravato covered faster, with fewer headaches, and without getting stuck in endless appeals. Whether your Medicaid plan denies coverage outright, your doctor doesn’t know how to get prior authorization, or clinics keep telling you they don’t accept Medicaid patients, this guide shows you exactly how to turn a no into a yes.

How This Guide Gives You the Upper Hand

You’re up against bureaucracy, misinformed insurance reps, and clinics that refuse to deal with Medicaid—but what if you had the exact words to say, the right forms to ask for, and the loopholes they hope you don’t find? That’s what this guide delivers.

• Need to convince your doctor to push harder on a prior authorization? Use the word-for-word script on page 38 that forces insurers to reconsider.
• Keep getting denied for not meeting “medical necessity” requirements? Page 24 explains how to rewrite your psychiatrist’s letter so Medicaid can’t say no.
• Tired of clinics refusing Medicaid patients? Page 47 reveals a little-known trick that gets them to reconsider—even if they originally turned you away.

The difference between fighting Medicaid alone and winning with this guide comes down to knowing the right language, loopholes, and leverage.

Why Most Clinics Won’t Accept Medicaid—And What to Do About It

You keep calling clinics, and the answer is always the same: “We don’t accept Medicaid.” But why? And more importantly, how do you get around it?

This guide exposes the real reasons clinics reject Medicaid patients—and the exact steps to find one that will take you.

• Why clinics lie about not accepting Medicaid (Page 12)—and how to call them out in a way that forces them to take a second look.
• How to use Medicaid’s own rules against them to get a referral that clinics can’t refuse (Page 19).
• What to say to a clinic’s administrator that makes them suddenly reconsider (Page 34).

The Hidden Medicaid Loopholes That Get You Covered

Medicaid’s approval process is designed to make you give up. Long wait times, rejected claims, and vague denial letters aren’t accidents—they’re strategies to keep costs down. But they also leave behind loopholes you can exploit.

• The Medicaid waiver program trick that sidesteps prior authorization—Page 29.
• How to get a free legal advocate to fight for you—Page 42.
• The secret Medicaid appeal letter template that forces them to reverse a denial—Page 51.

What Happens If Medicaid Denies Your Claim?

Denials aren’t the end of the road—they’re the beginning of your real fight. And if you follow the appeal process outlined in this guide, you’re going to win.

• The phrase that triggers a Medicaid “expedited review” and speeds up approval—Page 53.
• How to force a peer-to-peer review so your case gets a second opinion—Page 55.
• What to do when Medicaid keeps delaying your claim—Page 58.
