If I have medicaid in Louisiana, will an out of state facility accept me (such as Texas) accept me if they accept Medicaid also?

According to what I found on Google:

However, many Medicaid recipients don't realize that their health insurance coverage may not provide a full set of benefits should they require care while out of state. For example, some states only cover out-of -state emergency room visits to stabilize emergency conditions... Since Medicaid is administered as a joint program between the state and federal governments, each individual state has its own rules regarding out-of-state Medicaid coverage.

I'd suggest calling member services to get the specifics for Louisiana. I found their phone number online, it's 1.888.342.6207.
