This program utilizes grant funds, realized by Medicaid Redesign Savings, to provide supportive housing services. Medicaid beneficiaries who are unstably housed and have utilized emergency or inpatient medical services multiple times in the last year may be eligible for short-term rental assistance and case management services.
