Who will determine if a woman has creditable coverage?
A requirement for a woman to receive Medicaid coverage under the Breast and Cervical Cancer Prevention and Treatment Program is that she not have insurance or that her insurance does not provide coverage for treatment of her cancerous or pre-cancerous condition of the breast or cervix. At the time of application, a woman provides information regarding her insurance status. The Medical Assistance Coordinator at the County Assistance Office will review the information provided and, when a creditable coverage determination is required, will forward the information to the Health Insurance Premium Payment (HIPP) Program for review within five working days.
