How to Enroll

Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps people with limited incomes and resources receive needed health care coverage.

You are eligible for our plan as long as:

  • You are eligible and remain eligible for New Hampshire Medicaid*
  • and you live in New Hampshire (the AmeriHealth Caritas New Hampshire’s service area);
  • and you are a United States citizen or are lawfully present in the United States.
