Probably not, but if the hospital accepted you as a Medicaid patient you should not be liable for their delay.
In general, the answer to this question is yes.
In Illinois, a provider who accepts a patient as Medicaid cannot bill that patient for anything for which Medicaid would have paid had the provider timely and properly billed Medicaid.
There is one hospital per general region that does allow medicaid to pay for it. Such as U of I at Chicago Hospital in that region.
No it doesnt..
Yes. In fact many clinic's and hospitals have now gone private and do not accept Public aid patients at all. Faith based hospitals and clinics that are non profit are the few left who accept these payments. The fee or services is the same for everyone regardless what insurances coverage you have.
Yes, you can have both Medicaid and a private health insurance plan. The Medicaid plan will pay after your private plan pays. This means that your doctor (or hospital or other service provider) will bill your private plan first; then they will send the private plan's explanation of benefits (called an "EOB") to Medicaid.
HOW CAN I GET A FREE GRANT TO PAY MY UNEXPECTED HOSPITAL BILL

Sometimes. Your provider should contact your State's Medicaid agency for prior approval.
A doctor or other provider who accepts you as a Medicaid patient (i.e., agreed to bill Medicaid for your care) is required to accept Medicaid's amount as payment in full. (However, you might have a co-pay.) In Illinois, a provider who accepts you as a Medicaid patient cannot demand payment from you if Medicaid does not pay due to the doctor's failure to bill Medicaid timely and properly. Your State might have a similar rule.
In Michigan we adopted an infant girl that was on medicaid and so was the birth mother, we didn't have to pay back medicaid. We adopted her through the foster parent program, and yes we did take her home from the hospital after her birth.
