Medicaid members being forced to deal with LPCs, NPs, and PAs but no access to MDs, DOs, and PhDs
 

LPCs have significant limitations on what they can recommend and implement. When the Medicaid member has little to no alternatives through certain MCOs, the recommendations of the LPC such as DBT, SFT, directed therapy or many other forms of treatment are not available to those Medicaid members.
