If the physician does not have a contract with a medicaid managed care insurance, can the patient pay cash

You should check with your state's Medicaid.
For example, in my state (NY), this is permitted with with certain requirements:

If you are non-par with all Medicaid and Medicaid managed care, you should inform the patient that you are out of network. The patient has the option to see you as a cash patient, or seek care from an in network provider. As advised in the link:
A provider who does not participate in Medicaid fee-for-service, but who has a contract with one or more managed care plans to serve Medicaid managed care or FHPlus members, may not bill Medicaid fee-for-service for any services. Nor may any provider bill a beneficiary for services that are covered by the beneficiary's Medicaid managed care or FHPlus contract, unless there is prior agreement with the beneficiary that they are being seen as a private pay patient as described previously. The provider must inform the beneficiary that the services may be obtained at no cost from a provider that participates in the beneficiary's managed care plan.
I suggest creating a form for the patient to sign stating this prior to any services if your state has the same requirements.
