Medicaid and Ostomy Supplies

The easiest way to find out if your Medicaid plan covers ostomy supplies is to give us a call. We can help you understand your benefits and see which ostomy products are covered by your plan, and which ones you need.

To receive Medicaid-covered ostomy supplies, those supplies must be determined medically necessary by a doctor. That means a doctor has to confirm that supplies are needed to treat a medical condition. Once diagnosed, we will verify your insurance information and collect the paperwork from your doctor.
