Dataset Identification:
Resource Abstract:
- description: This dataset contains aggregate Medicaid payments, and counts for eligible recipients and recipients served by
month and county in Iowa, starting with month ending 1/31/2011. Eligibility groups are a category of people who meet certain
common eligibility requirements. Some Medicaid eligibility groups cover additional services, such as nursing facility care
and care received in the home. Others have higher income and resource limits, charge a premium, only pay the Medicare premium
or cover only expenses also paid by Medicare, or require the recipient to pay a specific dollar amount of their medical expenses.
Eligible Medicaid recipients may be considered medically needy if their medical costs are so high that they use up most of
their income. Those considered medically needy are responsible for paying some of their medical expenses. This is called meeting
a spend down. Then Medicaid would start to pay for the rest. Think of the spend down like a deductible that people pay as
part of a private insurance plan.; abstract: This dataset contains aggregate Medicaid payments, and counts for eligible recipients
