Managed Care & Granite Advantage Program
What is Medicaid Managed Care?
New Hampshire’s Medicaid programs are primarily administered by one of the state’s Managed Care Organizations (MCOs). In a Medicaid managed care system, Medicaid recipients are provided health care coverage from a company under contract with the state. MCOs agree to provide Medicaid benefits to recipients in exchange for a monthly payment from the state.
Visit the NH DHHS website for more information about MCOs and how to apply for coverage.
