Medicaid

The Medicaid program is a state and federally funded public health insurance program for low-income individuals, including older adults, individuals with disabilities, children, pregnant women, and those in need of home health or long-term care services. For health and human service provider organizations operating in the Medicaid space, there are new opportunities for serving this complex consumer population, while also navigating challenges related to changes to state-specific Medicaid programs, health plans and enrolment, and new rules.
