A Primer On Using Medicaid For People Experiencing Chronic Homelessness & Tenants In Permanent Supportive Housing
The document was released in July 2014 by the federal Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation, Office of Disability, Aging, and Long-Term Care Policy. It presents tools for states and communities working to expand services and supports for people in permanent supportive housing. While they focus on services for people experiencing chronic homelessness, the options highlighted in the Primer can be used by states to increase the role of Medicaid in providing supportive services to any individual who requires supportive services to achieve housing stability and improved health and well-being . . .
