What is Medicaid?
Many people with low income can’t afford to pay for health care, and can turn to Medicaid for assistance. Medicaid is a federal and state government-funded health insurance that helps pay for some or all the medical bills that those people can’t afford to pay. The program is the largest source of funding for medical and health-related services for people with limited income, available only to certain low-income individuals and families who meet particular eligibility requirements.
