More poor families signing up for Medicaid
Nearly 18,000 more people signed up for Medicaid in February, marking the 14th consecutive month that the state’s caseload has increased and the single largest monthly increase since 2002.
Medicaid is a state and federally funded health insurance program for low-income children and their parents, as well as aged, blind and disabled people. Ohio Medicaid’s enrollment is now 1.89 million and the program costs $10.7 billion a year.
State officials reported that 16,262 of the 17,745 new enrollees were from low-income families with children.
