Medicaid covers services that are medically necessary, as
determined by a Medicaid primary care physician (PCP).
Children on Medicaid from birth through age 20 are also part of
Early & Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, & Treatment
(EPSDT),
which helps parents make the most of their health care
benefits by helping families identify
medical issues as soon as possible. EPSDT is free access to good
health care for children who have a current Medicaid card.
Your
medical identification card (MID card) must be presented for all medical supplies,
equipment, or services (e.g., wheelchair, orthopedic shoes,
transportation).
Nurse Support Line is a free benefit to Medicaid recipients
in the Primary Care Physician Program and Fee-For-Service
plans. It is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
When recipients are sick or hurt, they can call to talk to a
nurse about what to do. This can help prevent an unnecessary
trip to the emergency room or doctor’s office. Call 911 when
someone might die or be disabled if they don’t get care
right now.
You may qualify for additional
services.
