Medicaid billing

<< < (3/5) > >>

Pay_My_Claims:
It is income based, and you can work and still not make enough money. Imagine working for minimum wage with a family of 5. Your income allows you to get medicaid, but you still have insurance offered through your employer. The insurance doesn't affect your medicaid eligibility, but your income or assets do.

It vary's in all states. I'm originally from NJ.. if you have another health plan and still have Medicaid..there's a problem.
Don't get me going on this topic. LOL

Pay_My_Claims:
it may vary as far as the criteria is concerned about obtaining medicaid, but what is across the board is that if you have medicaid from any state, it is always billed last. Medicaid will never be the primary payor to any insurance.

Yes I know.. LOL I think you keep missing my sarcasm.. Let's just say I've seen cases where Medicaid was the primary payor. I didn't say it was right.. :o

Michele:
The cases I was specifically referring to were not income based.  Both parents work, both make decent $ (especially the husband) and have a family of 4.  The eligibility for their son was solely on his disability.  They were informed by their case worker that they could get medicaid to cover their sons copays.
