Medicaid Covers US

Medicaid helps America’s families stay healthy and our communities thrive. It provides health insurance to low-income children and adults, seniors and people with disabilities, so that millions of people can get the health care they need to get healthy and stay healthy. It allows them to see a doctor when they are sick, get check-ups, buy medications and go to the hospital. Medicaid keeps hospital doors open to provide lifesaving care for people with cancer and other diseases, secures more jobs in our communities and helps America become a healthier, more prosperous nation.
