Does North Carolina Medicaid Cover Catheters?
North Carolina Medicaid may cover medically necessary intermittent catheter supplies for eligible members. You’ll need a prescription from a qualified healthcare provider that includes the type and quantity of supplies required.
Your plan may also require supporting medical documentation or prior authorization. Requirements can vary, particularly for members enrolled in a North Carolina Medicaid managed care plan. Current state guidance directs managed care members to their health plan for questions about available benefits and services.
If additional information is needed, our Documentation Specialists can work with your healthcare provider and insurance plan to help coordinate what’s required for your order.
