state insurance for Indiana

[Guest guest]

Hi !

I just got off the phone with the state office for Children's

Special Health Care Needs, and I am so relieved! The yearly gross

income limit to qualify is $56,525 per year. This covers everything

that the diagnosing doctor states will be needed for the child's care

within that particular diagnosis. I went over each need in detail, and

the Endo visits, GHT, GI visits, PT, OT, orthotics, and any testing

needed, will all be 100% state funded! Even hospital stays, and

emergencies will be paid for, as long as their office is notified

within 5 days of treatment, and they will need to approve it. Anything

not caused by the diagnosis will not be covered at all. One other

thing they said was, to get GHT, the statement of diagnosis from the

Dr., needed to use the exact words Growth Hormone Deficiency within

his letter. They go by a list of disorders, and RSS isn't one of them,

but because GHD is there, they would put Dasia in that category. Hope

this helps!
