Can someone who has had surgery under Medicaid coverage tell me if they cover all your pre-op expenses, for example nutritionist visits, pyschologist, labs, etc.

I currently have Medicaid/Medipass and was wondering... And if they do cover, Do you first need your PCP's referral.

Thanks to all who will respond :)

I am not sure.  I have medicare & medicade and the doctor I chose to go with required me to pay my psych eval cost and pre-op cost...so it was $1100 out of pocket in total.  Call your plan and find out.  Best of luck!
