What does medicaid cover (in West Virginia)?
I’m 22 and a full time student with no job, or insurance. I’ve met w/a few insurance agents, but everything seems a bit steep to me since I’m living off student loans.
Would medicaid cover vision and dental? I need both of those more than anything-it will cost me $5-600 just to get my yearly check up.
Donna is correct.
In WV, Medicaid pays for dental visits until you’re 21 (and only if you’ve had a child within the past year).
You will not likely qualify for Medicaid.
Until you get on your feet with a good paying job, I suggest visiting your local health clinic. Many charge based on income. This sounds like a temporary solution for you.
Best wishes!
