Medicaid is no longer covering it! I'm so pissed now while in the hospital we have to pay 250 to have it done! Ne other states pass this? I wouldn't of even known if I didn't bring it up w the doc that's Wat pisses me off the most!!
I'm here in California. San Francisco was trying to ban it all together. People should have the right to decide, it didn't even make it to the ballots. I personnaly am not circumcising my son, but, that's my decision...
i would not have chosen to circumcise if i was having a boy but i think that it should be your choice and i thing that medicaid should cover it i can see it being considered cosmetic but i know that alot of ppl consider it necissary and unsanitary not to have the baby circumcised and if you do have to pay for it out of pocket it shouldnt be more then 25 bucks i think 50 tops
they dont do it in cali either.. wich is fine with me cause i dont believe in it.. good luck.. they act like we can all just pull 3oo$ out of our ass..
It's not covered here in Oregon either, the hospital in my town doesn't even offer it anymore because less and less babies are having it done. Which is okay, I have 2 intact boys anyway, I don't believe in it.
I'm in idaho and when I had my son I ended up having to post for it twice. Once to pay the doctor which was 250 and then I got a bill from the hospital a month later and when I told them I already payed the doctor they said this bill was separate for using the hospitals equipment to do it. lame! All I can say is that I hope my son appreciates his 500 dollar weiner when hes older. If I could do it again, id wait and get it done in the doctors office instead of the hospital.
@britbee11 Here in Florida they don't cover it either. I just had my son 5 weeks ago and his pediatrician did it in her office for $200 and she did an amazing job, it healed up beautifully. It was worth the money.
