Are there physicians who accept Medicaid from a patient who needs medical attention but has Medicaid coverage in another state?

Answer by  Latin4 (11170)

You need to call the Medicaid office in your area, ask them how this coverage from NC can be used in SC. Or call the doctors office they should know.

Yes, that would be called an emergency room physician. Although it does happen that emergency rooms turn away patients the practice is illegal.

Answer by  John (9008)

He will only be covered if it is truly emergency care, and even then it is questionable. The only safe option is for him to go back to South Carolina.

Emergency care is covered out of state. There are instructions on the back of the medicaid card for out of state providers.

I would just call the drs and ask them or take him to the emergency room they should accept the medicaid there.
