What State Medicaid Plans Carve-Out Addiction Treatment Services?: An OPEN MINDS Market Intelligence Report
A carve-out is a Medicaid managed care financing model where some portion of Medicaid benefits—dental services, pharmacy services, mental health services, addiction treatment services, etc.—are separately managed and/or financed. For addiction treatment benefits, the benefits are often broken down even further into specific service categories, including emergency services for addiction disorders, inpatient detoxification, detoxification in a non-hospital based setting, outpatient services, residential treatment, and methadone maintenance. These benefits can be managed in the same financing and delivery system or each service can be provided through a different financing and delivery system arrangement.
