More details to this question:
My wife gave birth to our boy when she was on H2 visa and we could not afford the bills so opted for Medicaid. The company I was supposed to work for went bankrupt so I had no other option available at that time. I came back to my country after sometime. Now I recently applied for a visit visa again but was asked to show hospital bills in the US for the birth of son but I don’t have any as Medicaid paid for it.

My guess is (and this is only an educated guess), you may be required to re-pay into the system all financial assistance you received from Medicaid. This is why they asked for your medical bills; they want to make sure you pay back the US government because, technically, as a foreign national at the time, you were not eligible for this government assistance.
