[quote=Anonymous]My kids have Medicaid and one of them is about to get braces. The orthodontist submitted the claim and Medicaid ruled that the braces are not medically necessary so they will not cover any of it. We expected that. The orthodonist said she will charge us the same amount that she would have gotten reimbursed by Medicaid - $3,700. We will make monthly payments. One of us has a second job on the weekends to earn money to pay for things like this.[/quote]
