Self-Employment Q and A: Medicaid Home and Community Based Services

Medicaid is a state-federal program that provides health care to eligible low income individuals. When states participate in Medicaid, the state contributes part of the funding, and the federal government contributes part. The federal government provides guidelines for the program, but each state establishes its own requirements. In addition, states can elect to provide “optional” services. The specific services that are available and whether a person with a disability is eligible for these services is state specific and will vary depending on where an individual lives in the United States.
