LDH is moving forward with a plan to distribute food benefits on EBT cards. If the USDA, who administers the SNAP program, is prepared and ready to move money into states’ accounts, we will use federal dollars to fund SNAP recipients’ accounts. If they are not ready, LDH will proceed with our state-funded program to provide food assistance to the elderly, the disabled, and households with children through their existing EBT cards.
For Medicaid Partners
Do you want LACHIP/Medicaid to participate in your community event?
Cooperation between LDH, Medicaid enrollees, community stakeholders, and Medicaid providers is essential for creating healthy outcomes. When everyone works together, enrollees receive better care, providers can meet their needs, and community members can share helpful resources. This teamwork helps solve health problems and ensures that everyone has access to the support they need. By joining forces we can build a healthier Louisiana for everyone.
