The Kaiser Family Foundation’s Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured has updated its online database of Medicaid benefits to include data from October 2008, the most recent available as of September 28, 2009. The comprehensive database houses information on Medicaid acute and long-term care benefits in the 50 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. territories. It includes data about 46 services, including whether the benefit is covered, the populations that are eligible to receive various benefits, and the limitations, co-payments and payment rules that apply to the benefits for each state or jurisdiction. The database is searchable by Medicaid benefit as well as by state, and includes information from 2003, 2004, 2006 and 2008. You can compare specific benefits across states and in regional groupings of states and you can print, e-mail or save your search results.
This site lists programs that are helpful to people without insurance and less than 200% poverty income level. Although none of the three augmentation therapies are availible in any of these programs. It would be helpful to those Alpha's not on augmentation therapy that fall within the income parameters with no insurance coverage.
