I doubt it---it's not common in the US my pdoc was working off the British model. Most of the people on medicare/medicaid would have ssi/ssdi and have already passed the 1-2 year period with symptoms which suggests that they wouldn't be stable off meds. Basically they are trying to separate brief psychosis from sz when they take you off the meds so none of this really applies if you already have an sz diagnosis.
