Medicaid highlights: MIHP and Plan First!

• The Medicaid Maternal Infant Health Program's (MIHP) goal is for every pregnancy to be a planned pregnancy. Please continue to discuss family planning and contraceptive methods during OB office visits and at the four- to six-week postpartum visit.
• Pregnant women are eligible for Medicaid eight weeks after delivery, so please assist patients in applying for Plan First! (ages 19-44) after their Medicaid coverage expires. Patients may apply for Plan First! at their local health department or by clicking here.
• To view the Medicaid Provider Manual's Family Planning Covered Codes—Plan First!, visit michigan.gov. Click on Plan First and scroll down to Family Planning Codes.
• For OB enrollment/authorization form, preconception assessment or reproductive life plan, visit priorityhealth.com/provider/clinical/maternity.
