Medicaid covers half of all births in Texas. Finding quality health care can be a nightmare. | via keranews
Hines said when she was a nurse, typical prenatal appointments lasted about 10 to 15 minutes, “which doesn’t give the patient time to discuss their needs.”
“With our practice, we typically spend about an hour with our clients during their prenatal health [visits],” she said. “During that time, we’re able to get to know them as individuals. There's much more of a relationship that is built.”Plenty of data backs up the impact of relationship-building on people’s pregnancies.
“To be a Medicaid provider in the state of Texas, it’s a real hassle,” Hines said. “Medicaid makes it very difficult for us. And then we also get paid a very minimal amount comparatively [to private insurance]. It’s a mess, honestly.”, said reimbursement rates for Medicaid can be 50% less than a private insurance company.
Brown’s practice is one of very few in North Texas that accepts Medicaid, but she has a small team—she can accommodate between 10-12 patients a month.
