Does anyone know of a doctor in and around the Baton Rouge Louisiana area that will prescribe pain meds that takes Medicaid? I'm seeing a doctor now in Maryland but I really need to move back to Louisiana very sad that your pain keeps you from moving. I have a sister that is terminally ill and sad to say dying...and meds are keeping me from going to take care of her in her final days. Please help

I have a question regarding neck pain and numbness in my right hand, the thumb and first 2 fingers, I already have lower back & neck pain but numbness nonstop is new for past 2 weeks, in December I slip and fell down on the right side of my back on tile flooring pain Management doctor suggested a steroid inj. when ever I can afford it. Since insurance will not cover EMG tests or other imaging testing I can't afford those I'm not sure if this inj. will help it's an odd irritating feeling I'm using a heating pack and some at home stretching of neck muscles, I'm just looking for help, maybe going to a chiropractor ? Will help relive the pain in my neck and numbness in fingers, it feels like I need to loosen up or crack my back to relive this irritating pain, thank you for your advice in advance...

Love, have you tried University Health Hospitals or other ones connected to L.S.U. Medical School ? They all tale Medicaid. I am assuming that you live in Louisiana. If you don't, look for hospitals connected to Medical schools in your state.

Hi Britt, I'm and was in the same position my doctor just left the place I was Seeing my visits at to Open his own practice; at and had to find a new Pain Management Doctor in less Than a Month this was over a year ago, I have 5 kids and one son with Autism I have 2 torn discs in my lower back, Lower back pain with Pain down both legs and Neck Pain, & suffer from Anxiety- Social Anxiety, you can try the place I'm going to I have to self Pay though first visit was I think was around $475, than $275 month after that, they have several offices. Not sure if they're taking new patients but here's the Doctor's office info: Louisiana Pain Specialists, 504-754-2334 Locations in Kenner 231 West Esplanade Avenue, Suite B, Kenner, LA 70065 (New hours only open on Thursday's & Friday's at this office), Marrero, New Orleans East, New Orleans, Metairie, Louisiana, if they have appointments available first but just be prepared with all info from previous doctors MRI's and your Pharmacy printout of medications your currently taking :) Also there is a Doctors office in Slidell I've been informed of when I find that office information I can forward it to you they just require all info faxed to them before they make an appointment with you which is after your faxed info, takes 2 weeks for an appointment.... Hope this helps if you're still looking for a Pain Management Doctor, Good Luck & God Bless! :)

Britt , your best bet is going to be to call the Pain Management drs in the areas you mentioned and ask if they accept self pay patients. There is no way that anyone can say if a dr will or won't prescribe certain meds. A new dr will want a copy of your medical records from your previous dr.

Yes, my doctor lost his license. I live in the Hammond area so I'm really in the center of most major cities. I can go to Baton Rouge, Covington, Slidell, New Orleans etc. I really need someone who has a phone number for a self pay pain clinic. I have 3 children to care for and between the pain and anxiety and insomnia I'm of no use. Someone please help me!

I have no problem getting my records. I just need to find a doctor within driving disrance that will accept me with no insurance. I don't even understand why the hell they care if I can afford to pay. And I can't find anyone willing to give me a doctor's name and number. What's the big secret? I have real issues. I'm not an addict, but I feel as if I am a crackhead bc I'm in pain management with no insurance. I'm about to just apply for Medicare.

Britt, when did your dr lose his license and when was he arrested ?

Britt, not many pain management drs accept cash. Where in Louisiana do you live ? Often you just have to call the ones that are in your area. It may be difficult, if not impossible, to find another pain dr if your previous dr was arrested for overprescribing, A new dr will want a copy of your medical records from your previous dr.

Richard , Governor Edwards is expanding Medicaid. But, the money for expanding Medicaid for those that are newly eligible under the expansion won't benefit those that are currently on Medicaid and are going to have services cut due to the budget crisis.

lee ann, I assume you're receiving Medicaid because you have dependents since you said that you don't qualify for disability. Although there is no difference in the Medicaid that you receive if yo have dependents and the Medicaid you receive if you are on SSI.

Everyone that is on Louisiana Medicaid, needs to contact your reprsesentative in Baton Rouge. NOW. They are going to make drastic cuts to Medicaid in the Special Session that begins Sunday Feb 15, 2016. The cuts will affect Everyone that receives Medicaid. Among the list of cuts is paying less to providers, reduction in the number of prescriptions that Medicaid will pay for in a month, reduction and elimination of services, etc. Very few drs will accept Louisiana Medicaid now, it is going to get worse.
