  • I hope so I got my sons done n I'm not looking forward to that bill
  • Different states do. Michigan does, you can call and ask medicaid or look online. I am so glad my son is circumcised, if I had to I would pay. Good luck.
  • Ga's medicaid pays for it..
  • It depends bc my sister lives in Go and she had to pay.
  • That's the first question I asked before I even knew it was a boy. Texas does cover, however they said that some doc. Like to wait until baby had their own medicaid number. Call the plan your on and ask. Also ask ob if they do it, our if you have to have your pediatrician do it, some plans also will send you to a urologist for it.
  • Fl Medicaid didn't for me.
  • AZ doesnt do it. In fact most insurances now are saying its cosmetic and are starting to not cover it.
  • Yea I went thru some paperwork of charges I will be responsible for and circumcision is $400!! Even if I hav to pay out of pocket I am def getting my son circumcised. I'm just thinking it may be HIS Medicaid after he OS born that covers it and not mine. I'll hav to call and check, its one of those things u don't really think about until u get a bill in the mail.
