Medicaid is a health insurance program paid for by the Federal and state governments. The program helps make health care affordable for people who are elderly, disabled, and/or blind. Medicaid pays for medical services such as:

• visits to healthcare providers (including physician and nurse practitioners)
• inpatient and outpatient hospital services
• prescription drug coverage (only available in certain cases)
• lab tests
• x-rays
• medical transportation
• nursing home care
• home health services
• family planning services

To get program benefits, you should go to a healthcare provider that participates in the Medicaid program.
