ABSTRACT
School nurses are important participants in School Medicaid (SM) programs nationally. Yet, the complexity of SM programs and required documentation are major barriers to implementing this program for nurses. School nurses are often required to participate in the SM program without having a clear understanding of the purpose and components of the overall program. With the expansion of SM programs due to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services "free care" guidance change, nursing services and documentation are receiving more attention and scrutiny as more nursing services become eligible for reimbursement in states across the country. This article presents a clear overview of SM, its history, different components of state SM programs, school nursing documentation and challenges, and resources for school nurses who are interested in more information.
