The Medicaid program serves individuals and families who meet certain income guidelines, including: children up to age 19 (Healthy Start); pregnant woman; families; and those people who are 65 or older, who are blind, or have a disability.

Eligibility for health care coverage through Medicaid is determined by the County Departments of Job and Family Services (CDJFS).  Disability Assistance is available for qualified disabled Ohioans through a state-funded program administered by the Office of Ohio Health Plans.
