The New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is the
agency through which the NH Title XIX (Medicaid/Healthy Kids - Gold) programs
are administered. Medicaid is a federal and state funded health care assistance
program for low income people aged 19 and older, and certain other individuals
who lack adequate resources to pay for medical care. To qualify for Medicaid
people must meet specific requirements, including income and resource limits.
Healthy Kids-Gold is a DHHS program which provides health and dental insurance
coverage for eligible persons under age 19.
The Division of Family Assistance determines financial and categorical
eligibility, and Medicaid Administration determines medical eligibility
when it is required. The Division for Children, Youth and Families, the
Division of Behavioral Health, the Division of Developmental Services,
and the Division of Elderly and Adult Services are responsible for the
day-to-day operation of some NH Title XIX funded services and programs.
NH Title XIX programs provide payment for medical services ranging from
routine preventive medical care for children to institutional care for
the elderly and disabled. NH Title XIX also helps ensure access to care
through enrollment of medical providers, and access to transportation
services to medical care providers through reimbursement to recipients
and volunteer drivers.
NH Title XIX covered services are available statewide through medical providers
who have enrolled and have executed a contract with DHHS. If you have questions
regarding which services are covered under NH Title XIX, please research
the fee schedule pages within this website, or call the EDS Communications
Unit at 1-800-423-8303 (NH & VT only) or (603) 224-1747.
