Inasmuch as petitioner does not qualify under one of these categories, it is ineligible to receive Medicaid payments or reimbursement for the psychiatric clinic care it rendered. This is so even though petitioner may be properly licensed to perform those services and may be entitled to reimbursement for other services furnished Medicaid patients.
