Arizona IEP and School Medicaid Billing
Arizona public schools are dedicated to supporting students with disabilities through the Individualized Education Program (IEP). Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), school districts ensure that eligible students receive tailored special education and related services. IEP teams, including school personnel and parents, collaborate during IEP meetings to address each student’s unique needs.
In Arizona, Medicaid-covered services, such as speech and occupational therapy, play a crucial role in supporting IEP goals. Schools can bill Medicaid to cover these essential school-based health services, maximizing federal funds to enhance student support.
Go Solutions helps Arizona schools streamline IEP management and optimize Medicaid billing, ensuring compliance and maximizing reimbursements.

Open Care in Arizona
As of October 1, 2021, the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System (AHCCCS) has implemented a State Plan Amendment, approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), allowing school districts to bill Medicaid for health services provided to all Medicaid-enrolled students, not just those with an IEP. This initiative, known as “Open Care” or “Free Care,” includes students with 504 plans, RTI plans, or chronic illness plans, making them eligible for billing. Additionally, districts can receive reimbursements for hearing and vision screenings, as well as nursing services provided to these students.
With Open Care, you can increase your Medicaid reimbursements by streamlining the documentation and submission process, ensuring that you’re capturing all eligible services. To take full advantage of Open Care, it’s crucial that your district’s care plans are compliant and eligible for Medicaid billing. Go Solutions has been working closely with school districts across Arizona to ensure they meet these requirements and maximize their reimbursements. Our Medicaid consultants are ready to guide your district through the process and help you optimize your participation in the Open Care program.
