when mental illness prevents you from employment – does medicaid = lower quality of treatment

If someone is disabled by their illness to the point they cannot hold a job – then they do qualify for Medicaid—Then does it follow that they are generally relegated to worse doctors?

I am searching for a good doctor for Bipolar 1 but most of them do not accept Medicaid.
The Yale and Stanford trained specialists only treat wealthy sick people?

The Medicaid doctors we have been treated by for 15 years are ok, but not great

Starting to think there is no adequate treatment for Bipolar
Or is it just that we’re too poor to afford adequate treatment?

And if the patient weren’t sick they could hold a job that offers better insurance
Catch-22?
