Management of CareQuestion 1822 of 2368

A client who receives Medicaid is moving to another state. Which information should the nurse give?

  1. Covered services will stay identical in every state the client may live in
  2. Medicaid is funded only by the federal government, so rules never change
  3. Medicaid coverage ends as soon as a client moves out of the original state
  4. Covered services may differ because Medicaid coverage varies from state to state
Show answer

Correct answer: Covered services may differ because Medicaid coverage varies from state to state

Medicaid is a joint federal and state program, so coverage of services varies between states.
