To be eligible for Medicaid you must be elderly, disabled or blind. If you have not been determined disabled by the Social Security Administration, you may apply for Medicaid benefits while you wait for a disability decision
MAPP (Medicaid Purchase Plan) offers people with disabilities who are working or interested in working the opportunity to have health care coverage through the WI Medicaid Program. Depending on an individual’s income, a premium payment may be required for this health care coverage.
Under the MAPP Program, participants receive the same health care benefits offered through the WI Medicaid Program.
