Juan, in my state of Florida, Medicare and Medicaid are TOTALLY different. In fact, Florida Medicaid does not even pay for adult therapy (i.e. over 18 years of age) unless the patient is one of the many waivers. I'm a Medicaid provider but almost NEVER bill them.
Good luck with the PPOT referrals. I tried for 4 years and had VERY little success.
