A great deal of legislation has been directed at "cross-over" programs and melding of monies through block grants. The workforce development system with its "six-pack" of partners is a prime example of this collaboration. Agencies and legislation are often referred to by acronyms.

Our Services Info Center About Us Popular Sites ... Click here for PDF version. Ohio offers families free health coverage Since the implementation of welfare reform, families across Ohio have made it a priority to become self-sufficient. In doing so, many families have opted to take entry-level positions that usually do not provide health care coverage that is both comprehensive and affordable. Sounds great, but who qualifies? Contrary to popular belief, most families receiving health coverage through Healthy Start Families can get an application or general information by calling the Consumer Hotline at 1-800-324-8680. Hotline staff can answer questions or provide assistance in filling out the short 2-page application. The application can also be found on the internet at www.state.oh.us/odjfs/ohp or by contacting the local office of job and family services. Outreach is being conducted at national, state and local levels to alert families about the availability of this health coverage. However many states, including Ohio, have found it difficult to find these families. NOT the case! Health care coverage can be stabilizing for families working hard to make ends meet. Do your part by telling everyone you know that this coverage exists and is available to more families than ever before!

Manuals Tools Search Email this page Easy Print DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE September 21, 2000 Dear State Health and Welfare Officials: SUBJECT: I. Application Requirements and Inquiries Regarding Citizenship or Immigration Status Under federal law, states are required to establish the citizenship and immigration status of applicants for Medicaid (except emergency Medicaid), SCHIP, TANF and Food Stamps. However, states may not require applicants to provide information about the citizenship or immigration status of any non-applicant family or household member or deny benefits to an applicant because a non-applicant family or household member has not disclosed his or her citizenship or immigration status. Thus, for example, in the Medicaid program, if benefits are being sought only for the child, the child is considered the "applicant," and the state is required to establish the citizenship and immigration status of the child, but not the child's parents. Further, the state may not deny benefits to the child, if otherwise eligible, because the child's parents have not provided information to establish that they are citizens or qualified immigrants. It is important to underscore that each federal benefit program has somewhat different rules and policies regarding who is and is not considered "an applicant." While Medicaid and SCHIP allow indeed encourage individual children to apply for and receive benefits, TANF and Food Stamps, as a general rule, require families or households to apply for benefits as a unit. The accompanying Qs&As explain in detail how the rules regarding the requirements for establishing citizenship and immigration status are applied within each benefit program.
