State Medicaid programs vary in their approaches to serving children and youth in foster care (CYFC), with states increasingly implementing specialized health care delivery systems and enhanced services.
The two maps, accompanying chart, and issue brief highlight key characteristics of states’ Medicaid programs for serving CYFC, including:
- The structure and program features of their Medicaid service delivery models
- The use of specialized Medicaid managed care (MMC) programs
- The provision of services, including the availability of enhanced services for CYFC
