Medicaid Outreach & Enrollment

Enrollment in health coverage is a critical step toward accessing comprehensive health care services. The National Health Care for the Homeless Council is committed to ensuring that all persons are able to access health insurance that is affordable. Below are resources that we have developed to tailor outreach and enrollment strategies to be more effective when working with people experiencing homelessness.
