District of Columbia State Specific Strategies

DC Healthcare Alliance – The Alliance provides health care to uninsured District residents, regardless of citizenship status, who are ineligible for Medicaid with family incomes below 200 percent of the FPL delivered via Medicaid managed care organizations. The Alliance provides HMO-like coverage through a network of primary care “medical homes,” with specialty and hospital services from participating providers. This program is funded solely by the District. As of December, 2008, Alliance enrollment was approximately 49,500 individuals.
