Medicaid Managed Care

Medicaid Managed Care

Medicaid is jointly funded by the federal and state governments and is the largest source of funding for medical and health–related services for people with limited income. The maximum monthly gross income that defines eligibility is determined by family composition and varies by County. Pregnant women, children, and disabled persons with medical bills may also qualify for Medicaid.
