What if my children are covered by Medicaid already?

By: Meg Dilts

What if my children are covered by Medicaid already?

If your children are currently on Medicaid, they already have comprehensive health insurance. If you are having trouble seeing a doctor or getting a needed service, please contact your caseworker or your State Medicaid program.

What if my state tells me that my children are eligible for Medicaid but I don't want to enroll them in Medicaid? Can I qualify for another insurance program?

Children eligible for Medicaid are not eligible to enroll in their State's Children's Health Insurance Program. Medicaid provides comprehensive health benefits for children. If you think your child may qualify for Medicaid, please call the toll-free hotline 1-877-KIDS NOW (1-877-543-7669) to discuss your questions and concerns with someone from your state.
