Medicaid and Insurance
Kentucky Medicaid is Accepted at Paintsville Behavioral Health
Paintsville Behavioral Health accepts Kentucky Medicaid, and we are glad to do it. Many adults and families worry about the cost of mental health care. Medicaid helps take that weight off your shoulders. It covers most of the outpatient services we provide, including groups, skills training and case management for eligible clients.
If you use private insurance or prefer to self‑pay, we can work with you too. Our goal is simple. We want cost to be one less thing you have to worry about while you focus on feeling better.
How to Enroll in Kentucky Medicaid
Enrolling in Kentucky Medicaid is easier than most people expect. You can apply online, by phone, or at your local DCBS office. Many families help a loved one through this process, and that is completely okay. You do not have to do it alone.
Most people need a few basic items to get started. This usually includes your Social Security number, proof of income, and information about your household. If you are unsure what you need, our staff can walk you through it.
You can apply in three simple ways:
- Online through the Kentucky kynect website
- By calling the kynect help line at 1-833-372-0004
- By visiting your local DCBS office
Once you apply, the state reviews your information and lets you know if you qualify. If you need help at any point, we are happy to guide you.
Understanding Fee‑for‑Service Coverage and Medicaid
Kentucky Medicaid offers fee‑for‑service coverage for many adults in our community. With this type of coverage, Medicaid pays for each service you receive. That includes groups, skills training, case management, and other outpatient support. You come to your appointments, and Medicaid helps cover the cost. It’s simple and predictable.
You also don’t have to deal with confusing billing on your own. Our staff explains what Medicaid covers, helps you understand any limits, and walks you through paperwork when you need it. We want the financial side of care to feel easy so you can stay focused on your health.
What to know about fee-for-service billing:
- Medicaid pays for each service you receive
- Covers groups, skills sessions, and case management
- You attend appointments and Medicaid helps with the cost
- Staff help with questions, coverage details, and paperwork
