Most health insurance plans in Illinois, including Medicaid, cover abortion care. In fact, Illinois Medicaid plans such as Blue Cross Community Health Plans, CountyCare Health Plan, Meridian Health Plan, Molina Healthcare, and others cover 100% of treatment costs in most cases. Illinois is one of the few states that use its own funds to ensure its Medicaid program covers abortion care so there should be no out-of-pocket expenses for patients.
If you cannot afford the cost, please tell the provider you need help after you fill in the form. Abortion funds can cover the full or partial cost of treatment as well as travel if you're not able to get care locally. Cost should never be a barrier to abortion care.
