    Deena Strategic Group · Medicaid Revenue Wayfinder · Free guided demo

    Find out if Medicaid could pay for work you already do.

    You may already be doing work a health plan pays other people to do. Let's walk it through together, in plain steps: who decides where you are, what to ask, which route makes sense, and what one unit of your service really costs.

    1. 1Your serviceWhat you do, in plain words
    2. 2Who decidesState, and sometimes county or city
    3. 3Covered?In writing, with a source
    4. 4Your routeEnroll yourself or partner
    5. 5Paid rightRecords, rate, invoice

    What this is

    • Federal steps that apply everywhere.
    • The exact questions to ask your state.
    • A starting point: enroll yourself, partner, or another door first.
    • Your numbers: cost per unit, a rate you assume, denials, the wait for payment and the cash you'd need.
    • A 90-day action plan you can download or print.

    What this is not

    • Not billing, enrollment or a promise of payment.
    • Not verified state rules. No state is verified yet.
    • Not medical or legal advice.

    This free Wayfinder is a starting point. The full Medicaid Revenue Pathway System, $149 one time, adds several service lines, a month-by-month cash flow, side-by-side partner offers, a readiness tracker and a saved plan. It does not include verified state rules either. It is separate from Sustainability in a Box™. Bought Sustainability in a Box before November 12, 2026? Your Medicaid Readiness room stays open: open it here.

    Before you start: about 15 minutes

    You'll see notes marked The Underneath™. They name what the system tends to miss or punish, and what to do about it. They're part of every DSG tool, not an add-on. What The Underneath is.

    • Who delivers them, their hours, and what an hour costs you with benefits.
    • Rough monthly costs: rent share, mileage, supplies.

    Your privacy

    Nothing you type here is saved or sent anywhere. It stays on this screen until you leave. Never type a Medicaid ID, a client's name, a birth date or any health information. If something looks like one, the demo stops and tells you.

    Step 1 Where do you work?

    Pick where you deliver the service. Washington, DC is listed as District of Columbia.

    Some counties and cities run parts of Medicaid, like referrals or contracts.

    Step 2 What do you do?

    Check every service you deliver now. Pick what is true today, not what you hope to add.

    Describe the service in one line. No client details.

    Step 3 Who does the work?

    Use your real numbers. If you don't know one yet, leave it blank. The total will say Unknown instead of guessing.

    For example: outreach worker.

    People in this role.

    Hours on this service.

    Pay plus benefits, in dollars.

    Rent share, mileage, supplies, software. In dollars.

    How many times a month you deliver it: visits, rides, meals or hours.

    For example: 15 minutes, one ride, one visit. Payers define units; confirm theirs.
