Quick answers
Before you reach out.
Does Illinois Medicaid cover doulas?
Illinois Medicaid includes a doula benefit, but coverage details and authorization requirements can vary by managed care plan and individual situation. We can help you identify the next step for your plan.
Do I need to know exactly which service I want?
No. You can reach out while you’re still figuring it out. We can start with your stage of pregnancy or postpartum and what kind of support would make life easier right now.
