What is it?
Medicaid is a government health insurance program that helps individuals and families with children pay for some or all
of their medical bills.
What do I get?
Free medical services such as doctors’ services, dental care,
eyeglasses, home care, hospital care, and many other health-related
services. Most people who receive Medicaid in Memphis must enroll in a
managed care plan. Managed care is a health plan provided by a private
Health Maintenance Organization (HMO). You can choose from a number of
managed care plans.
How long do I get it?
You can get Medicaid as long as you
still qualify but you'll need to recertify every 12 months.
Recertification requires a Medicaid worker to make sure you are still
eligible for Medicaid.
