Connecting Health and Homeless Services for Medicaid Beneficiaries
It is widely known that funding to provide housing navigation and housing support services is key to helping households move out of homelessness as quickly and smoothly as possible. The implementation of the Medicaid 1115 Waiver in New Jersey will provide access to these services for more households than ever before. This session will focus on the connection Medicaid and housing have had over the years, the gaps and how the new Medicaid Waiver will help address these gaps. Agencies will also take away the key eligibility criteria tied to their client’s being eligible for these services and for their organization to get paid to provide eligible services.
