If you have Medicaid medical coverage, you must show your card each time you visit the hospital so that we may verify with Medicaid that you are eligible to receive services.
If you are a member of Carolina Access, we will need the name and phone number of your primary care doctor. Your primary care doctor must refer you to Mission Hospital before Medicaid will pay for your hospital services.
Medicaid does not pay for certain services, even if your doctor orders them. You may need to pay all or a portion of the charges that are not covered. Please call your Department of Social Services (DSS) worker to make sure Medicaid will cover the procedure.
We have staff available to assist you in determining if you qualify for Medicaid benefits, as well as assist you with making an application. You may speak with a representative for assistance by calling:
-
(828) 213-1590 or
-
(800) 848-8732, extension 31590
