State Medicaid Managed Care for Long Term Care (SMMCLTC)
The State Medicaid Managed Care Program provides community-based services, Assisted Living, and Nursing Home assistance to frail functionally impaired seniors and disabled adults age 18 and above at risk of nursing home placement. The program assists clients to remain in their own homes or Assisted Living facilities. The program also manages clients under Long Term Care Medicaid in a Nursing Home. Clients must meet financial eligibility as determined by the Department of Children and Families and functional level of care as determined by CARES. Clients choose a Long Term Care Managed Care Plan through an enrollment broker. The plan assigns a case manager to each client who will help develop a care plan.
