We are very close to finalizing adoption for a special needs child. He is currently on medicaid and will continue to receive that coverage. It is expected we will use that as a back-up to our own family policy. It has been suggested to us by someone in the adoption field that we may be better off NOT adding him to our policy because of the amount of care he may need going forward and the battles which may come between our insurer and medicaid. I am asking ONLY from the standpoint of avoiding hassles & potential confusion-I'd rather be spending my time with him in the coming years than on hold repeatedly fighting yet another broken system! We love this child and want what's best for him. We will get his needs met.Can we keep him off our family policy? Do you see any potential pitfalls with that scenario? Medicaid has been good at meeting his needs (weekly therapies and meds running over 500/month) and we have no plans to change his providers. Anyone dealt w/this before?
