Medicaid and Healthcare

A young child’s diagnosis helps to unlock a system of home-based services and supports, known as early intervention, that are specifically designed for children 0-3 years old.

Medicaid is the largest source of federally-supported healthcare coverage for low-income families and children. We help parents to access quality healthcare that meets their children’s specific needs. 

Children and young adults with a developmental disability or acquired brain disorder who are between the ages of zero and twenty-one might qualify for area agency services.

New Hampshire provides targeted services to keep people with disabilities in their communities and out of institutions. 

New Hampshire’s Medicaid programs are primarily administered by one of the state’s Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) and our Medicaid expansion program in known as Granite Advantage.

If you disagree with a decision made by your Managed Care Organization (MCO) or if you are unhappy with the services they provide, you have the right to file a grievance or an appeal.

The MEAD program allows individuals with severe disabilities to work and still qualify for Medicaid benefits.

Individuals, birth to twenty-one, who have or are at risk for a chronic medical condition, disability, or special health care need might qualify for services through Special Medical Services programs like Partners in Health.
