ABOUT INDIANA MEDICAID
Medicaid is a health program that provides insurance and benefits for specific populations in the US. The Federal government establishes general guidelines for the administration of Medicaid benefits. Individual states are charged with administering Medicaid so eligibility requirements and the type and scope of services provided can vary by state.
In Indiana, there are 4 main Medicaid programs: Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP), Hoosier Healthwise (HHW), Hoosier Care Connect (HCC), and PathWays. HIP covers Indiana residents ages 19 to 64 who meet specific income levels. HHW covers children up to age 19 and pregnant women. HCC covers individuals who are aged 65 years and older, blind, or disabled and who are also not eligible for Medicare. PathWays will launch in 2024 and covers Hoosiers aged 60 and over who receive Medicaid (or Medicaid and Medicare) benefits.
The state of Indiana contracts the administration of its Medicaid programs (a term known as Managed Care) to insurance companies like Elevance Health (formerly known as Anthem), Humana, CareSource, UnitedHealthcare, and others. These insurance companies are responsible for ensuring the care of their members and do way more than just process claims and provide a network of doctors and hospitals. These companies also ensure members have reliable transportation to appointments, have access to healthy food, educate youth on the importance of annual physicals, provide nurse case managers to members with chronic illnesses, provide member resources for stable housing, convene events and celebrations in communities, collaborate with professional sports teams to raise awareness of health issues, coordinate in-home care, deliver dental hygiene kits to churches, implement telemedicine solutions to help those living in rural areas, guide first-time-mothers through their pregnancy journey, and the list goes on!
