I provide medical/dental through child support. The plans cover everything besides a low copay. If the mother gets Medicaid for the child can it be used as a secondary? I was under the impression that if you already have a primary insurance you can not be on it. If the mother does not tell medicaid about the primary insurance, who will responsible to pay back the bill?
--------------------
You can have both regular insurance and Medicaid. It is common in cases like yours. The regular insurance will be primary and Medicaid will pick up the co-pays and procedures that the primary doesn't cover. However, Medicaid does need to know about the primary insurance or they will make you pay back the charges that the primary should have paid. If the mother lied to Medicaid I would think she would be responsible.
