Webinar: Important Update on Applying for SSI and Medicaid
Medicaid provides cost-effective coverage for low income individuals. In New Jersey, Medicaid eligibility is now required in order to receive Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) funded services . This important reform ensures the state's ability to maximize the receipt of federal revenue, and to preserve and enhance community-based supports for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.
Individuals new to the Division are required to meet the functional criteria and have Medicaid eligibility before they can begin receiving a service.
This webinar is geared to inform you of the different ways to initiate the eligibility process, information needed to complete the process, and updates on federal and state regulations.
