  • They will back pay if you explain to your doctor so you can still go to your appointments. I had medicaid with my first child and i think it can take up to 1 month.
  • There is also a website you can check on the status. Not sure what it is I'll check when I get home

  • Ok thanks because I have to find another doctor and everything. I'm in texas... I'm gona call around and see if they can still see me. Thanks
  • Mine took less than 2 weeks.
  • I submitted mine online and it took them about a week to get back to me and a month for it to kick in. Your pregnant so it shouldn't take them that long.
  • @2ndbutfirst I live in Texas and it took like a week or two to get coverage, but a month for it to actually kick in.
  • @2ndbutfirst Yeah to get a specific coverage takes a minute, but to just get covered doesn't take no time. At least it shouldn't.
  • @addi3886 Yeah I did it online, the guy called me a week later, asked me to come in and fill out some papers, gave me all my stuff including food stamps, and that was it. I got to skip in front of all those ppl waiting as well.
  • I had went into the office to apply and had got mine the same day i applied.
  • I'm in Texas & it only took a couple of days ;)
  • Wow! I called they haven't received my info. I'm gona try again on monday.
  • It's better if you go into the office. The internet /mailing it isn't any good. They'll claim they didn't get anything,or something else can go wrong with it. I go into the Office for everything.
  • I mailed mine and had my card within a week. Louisiana is pretty fast.
  • Mine automatically approved because I was preggo but its only prenatal medicaid & nothing else. My card came about a week later.
  • It took a like a week or two for mine to approve, they push pregnant woman to the front of the line. I called and checked on it too, they should be able to tell you something.
