Medicaid

Medicaid provides medical coverage to low-income individuals and families. The state and federal government share the cost of the Medicaid program.

Medicaid eligibility is determined either by the State of New Jersey Department of Human Services or the Social Security Administration (for SSI recipients).

There are several ways individuals may apply for assistance:

  1. You can apply online through njfamilycare.org or njhelps.org.
  2. You can download an application for NJ FamilyCare/Medicaid from njfamilycare.org or call 1-800-701-0710 to request that an application be mailed to you.
  3. You can apply at your local County Welfare Agency.
