"[I]t is Medicaid fraud to cause or submit prescriptions to Medicaid 
for reimbursement if they are not for a medically accepted 
indication. End of story." PsychRights has developed a Medically 
Accepted Indications Chart showing what is allowable for common 
psychiatric drugs. Every other use of these drugs in children and 
youth and submitted to Medicaid is fraudulent. PsychRights 
conservatively estimates that at least half of psychotropic drug 
prescriptions to children and youth submitted to Medicaid are not for 
medically accepted indications and therefore fraudulent.
