Find Help for Mental Health, Drugs, or Alcohol if You’re on Kansas' Medicaid Program or Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP)

Body

If you're part of the KanCare program, Kansas's Medicaid program, your care is through one of three Managed Care Organizations (MCOs). You'll need to check your specific MCO's network of providers. You can find the number on the back of your health plan card. When you call, ask if they can help you find a provider in their network or if they have an online directory. 

Learn about the types of providers.

If you have concerns about getting to an appointment, your state’s Medicaid program may offer help with transportation (PDF | 1 MB).

You can also:

  • Ask your doctor, social worker, loved ones, or a trusted friend, if they know any health care professionals or programs.
  • Call the phone number on the back of your insurance card. Many will list a number for mental health and substance use (sometimes called behavioral health) or a nurse line. You can ask them for help finding and getting services.
  • Use the SAMHSA search for health care professionals and programs or call 1-800-662-4357 any time day or night. The call line has people who can speak with you in English or Spanish.
  • Find a health center that provides free or low-cost care.
  • If you have a job, ask your employer’s human resources department if they have an Employee Assistance Program (EAP). An EAP is a free and confidential service that your company pays for. The service can help employees with mental health, drug or alcohol use, grief, and trauma.
  • If you’re a student, look for your school’s health center or peer support group.
  • Learn about support groups.
