Program Description
The New Hampshire Medicaid program is a Federal and state funded
program that serves needy individuals and families in New Hampshire who meet
financial and other eligibility requirements and certain other individuals
who lack adequate resources to pay for medical care.
The
program provides payment for medical services ranging from routine
