MEDICAID APPLICATION ASSISTANCE SERVICES The contractor shall provide assistance in person and remotely, as requested, with the completion of Medicaid applications.

The contractor shall be able to navigate the Medicaid application process to completion for states served within the VISN as noted above. The contractor shall provide personal assistance and resources to VABHS staff, patients and caregivers, who have been identified as needing to complete this application in order to access additional community based resources that Medicaid can provide. Individuals are identified through a screening process completed by VABHS staff.
