How Plan Availability Works by County
Not every plan serves every county, and no plan covers the whole state. MDHHS's own listing warns that new service areas may be approved monthly, so a plan a neighbor has may not be an option where you live.

What Michigan Medicaid Health Plans Cover
MDHHS says Michigan Medicaid covers medically necessary services. The ones that matter most for older adults:Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). Medicaid.gov - Mandatory & Optional Medicaid Benefits (federal state-plan benefit taxonomy). medicaid.gov. Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits
- Doctor visits, including physician services
- Inpatient and outpatient hospital care
- Emergency services and ambulance
- Lab and X-ray
- Medicine prescribed by a doctor
- Physical and occupational therapy
- Home health care, hospice care, and nursing home care
- Personal care services and private duty nursing
- Dental, substantially expanded for beneficiaries 21 and older effective April 1, 2023
- Vision
- Hearing and speech services
- Podiatry (foot care) and chiropractic
- Medical supplies
- Non-emergency medical transportation (NEMT)
MDHHS cautions that some of these services are limited and may not be covered for beneficiaries age 21 and older, and that some may require prior approval, so confirm the specifics before you count on a service. Covered does not always mean free, either: people age 21 and older may owe a small co-pay for some services.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.).

Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits

Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits
What Runs Outside Your Health Plan
Two big categories are managed by other organizations:
Specialty Behavioral Health and Substance Use
Specialty behavioral health and substance use disorder services are managed under MDHHS contracts with Michigan's regional Prepaid Inpatient Health Plans (PIHPs), which manage the network of behavioral health providers, including Community Mental Health Service Providers.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). Medicaid.gov - Mandatory & Optional Medicaid Benefits (federal state-plan benefit taxonomy). medicaid.gov. Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits
MI Choice Waiver Services

(n.d.). Michigan Waiver Factsheet. medicaid.gov. Retrieved Oct 19, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/section-1115-demo/demonstration-and-waiver-list/Waiver-Descript-Factsheet/MI MDHHS says MI Choice participants receive the basic services Michigan Medicaid covers, supports coordination, and waiver services such as adult day health, community living supports, home delivered meals, respite services, and personal emergency response systems.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

This matters when a family asks why a parent's health plan isn't handling her specialty mental health care or her MI Choice aide services: those are managed by a different organization, so that's who to call.
Extra Benefits: Ask Each Plan What It Adds
Michigan defines the Medicaid benefit package every plan delivers, so anything a plan offers beyond it is that plan's own addition.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). Medicaid.gov - Mandatory & Optional Medicaid Benefits (federal state-plan benefit taxonomy). medicaid.gov. Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits We don't have a state list of those extras to point you to, so the reliable way to compare is to ask each plan directly. Questions worth putting to each plan's member services line before you enroll:
- Do you offer an over-the-counter allowance, and what does it cover?
- Do you add any dental coverage above the state package?
- Do you cover rides to non-medical errands such as the pharmacy or the grocery store?
- Do you offer a fitness or gym membership?
- Do you offer a food benefit for members managing a chronic condition?
- Do you run a nurse advice line, and what hours is it staffed?
- Do you offer rewards for preventive care such as flu shots and annual checkups?
Ask for the plan's own current benefit sheet in writing before you decide, and treat anything a marketer says on the phone as a starting point rather than a promise.
How to Choose a Plan
Work through these steps in order; the network check matters far more than the perks.
Check the provider network first
Call your primary care doctor, your specialists, and any hospital you want to use, and ask which Medicaid plans they accept. Start here, because extras do not matter if your doctor is out of network.
Check the pharmacy network
Confirm your pharmacy is in network, and ask how your medications, especially any specialty drugs, will be covered.
Compare dental networks
Michigan substantially expanded adult dental benefits for beneficiaries 21 and older effective April 1, 2023, so ask each plan for its current dental network directory.Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. (n.d.). Medicaid.gov - Mandatory & Optional Medicaid Benefits (federal state-plan benefit taxonomy). medicaid.gov. Retrieved Sep 4, 2026, from https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/benefits/mandatory-optional-medicaid-benefits
Weigh any extras
Decide which of the plan-added benefits above actually matter for your situation.

The regulation's "good cause" reasons are specific. They are: you move out of the plan's service area; the plan does not cover the service you seek because of moral or religious objections; you need related services performed at the same time, not all of them are available in network, and a provider determines that receiving them separately would subject you to unnecessary risk; you use managed long-term services and supports and a residential, institutional, or employment-supports provider changes from in-network to out-of-network in a way that disrupts your residence or employment; or other reasons, including poor quality of care, lack of access to services covered under the contract, or lack of access to providers experienced in dealing with your care needs.
