Best Answer

No - medical bills covered by medicaid cannot be collected from the patient. Provide them another copy of your medicaid card for that time of service or contact medicaid and have them contact the hospital that is harassing you.

Will Alabama medicaid pay a primary insurance copay?

Medicaid will pay the copay only if the amount of the copay added to whatever the primary insurance paid is less than or equal to what Medicaid would allow for that charge to begin with. Like charge of $50 for a visit, and the copay is $10 and the primary insurance paid $3 and Medicaid allows $15 for that particular code. Then Medicaid would pay $12.00 of it. This is highly unlikely, though.

If you are poor can you get free medical treatment in South Africa?

Yes. If you are poor, you can receive free medical treatment in South Africa. You generally will only be treated by the clinic or hospital that serves your residential area, but if it is an emergency, you will be treated at any government facility, and subsequently referred to a clinic or hospital near to your residence. The billing code for the poor or unemployed is H1-UPFS. This means a minimal charge for paperwork, if it can be afforded, or no charge at all.
