What you get with Nevada Medicaid
We offer benefits to help you feel better and live your best life — Benefits you’ll notice in your every day
There are no copays for covered services.
Maintaining good health is important. With Anthem, you go to one main person for your health care. He or she can be a doctor, a nurse practitioner or a physician’s assistant. This person is called your primary care provider or PCP. Anthem has a large network of doctors and nurses who help our members.
Everyone struggles at times, and everyday problems can lead to depression, anxiety, and alcohol or drug abuse. We’re here if you or a family member needs help. We have doctors, therapists and counselors to help you with your behavioral health needs. All behavioral health services and treatments are private and you don’t need a referral from your PCP.
Text-based peer support
Our text-based peer support services program provides peer-led crisis services to members age 13 and older via text. The program allows members to engage with a qualified mental health professional and receive information. They engage in dialogue with clinicians to establish rapport and determine needs. Our qualified mental health professionals provide counseling and crisis intervention as needed.
Your benefits include eye exams once every 12 months. You don’t need a referral from your PCP for eye care benefits.
Nevada Medicaid members under 21 also get eyeglasses or contact lenses (if medically necessary). Members can call EyeQuest at 1-800-787-3157
(TTY 1-800-466-7566) for help finding an Anthem eye doctor in your area.
