Gastroenterologist

Hello @tinalouise6, Welcome to Connect. Unfortunately Mayo Clinic does not take out of state Medicaid. You can find more information here - https://www.mayoclinic.org/patient-visitor-guide/billing-insurance/insurance/accepted-insurance/medicaid. There is another discussion you might find helpful.

Hello @tinalouise6. I would like to join John, @johnbishop, in welcoming you to Mayo Connect.

As John said, Mayo Clinic does not take patients with out-of-state Medicaid. However, Mayo Clinic does have a list of providers that can consult with Mayo doctors. These health care facilities are referred to as Mayo Clinic Care Network Members. Here is a link to those providers,
https://www.mayoclinic.org/about-mayo-clinic/care-network/members.
If you look at the list you will see that there is a health care center in Kentucky. You might consider giving that facility a call to see if a gastroenterologist there can see you.

You don't mention what type of gastric problems you are having. Would you be comfortable sharing more about this? If so, I might be able to connect you with other Connect members who have the same type of problem.

Will you post again and let me know if you are able to get help?

St Elizabeth Covington KY.
