Only if you have Medicare or Medicaid normally. If you were declared disabled, they will pay the bills.
Medicare and Medicaid coverage is virtually identical. The two principal things to remember are: Medicaid is always the payor of last resort (i.e., bill Medicare and/or private insurance first); and, Medicare does not pay for long term custodial care, such as a nursing home (Medicaid does).
Medicaid policy varies because it is administered by the States; however, in general, Medicaid will furnish transportation to/from a source of medical care.
No. Neither Medicare nor Medicaid pay for elective cosmetic surgery procedures, like liposuction.
Medicare, no. Medicaid, yes.
You cannot bill Medicaid for your HMO deductibles. However, if you are medicaid eligible, you don't need a Medicare HMO - Medicaid should be paying your Medicare co-payments, deductibles, and any other covered expenses that Medicare doesn't pay. If you are on Medicaid spend-down, your HMO deductible is a medical expense that can be applied to spend-down.
Marijuana is used medically to make drugs such as cannabidiol and tetrahydrocannabinol.
Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that provides healthcare coverage for low-income individuals. Currently, Medicaid does not cover medical marijuana as it is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is classified as a Schedule I controlled substance at the federal level. However, some states have established their own Medicaid policies regarding medical marijuana coverage, so it is worth checking with your state's Medicaid program for more information.
You are not required to pay back Medicaid or Medicare.
Insurance payments would have to be the primary source of income, then Medicare, Medicaid and self pay.
