Use the Data: data files and an API for researchers and developers.

Where the rewards come from

Our main source for each plan is its member handbook: the booklet that explains your coverage, posted on the plan's website. We use other public sources, like the plan's website or a state comparison chart, only for what the handbook leaves out. Every reward links to the document it came from.

How up to date they are

Most plans put out a new handbook each year. If a plan's new year has started and we haven't read its new handbook yet, the reward has a note that says so. Your state's sources page shows when each document was last checked.

How far you can rely on them

This is an early release. We took the rewards from plan documents and are still checking them, one plan at a time, so some details may be wrong. Before you count on a reward, check it with your plan. If you see a mistake, tap "Something wrong?" on that reward.

What this site leaves out

This site lists the rewards plans add on top of standard Medicaid. Standard Medicaid benefits are shown once, under "Also included with Medicaid."

We list the Medicaid health plans we found public documents for. If yours is missing, tell us through Feedback.

We leave out:

Rewards from Medicare plans, including plans for people who have both Medicare and Medicaid (D-SNPs). Medicare is a different program.
PACE, a separate all-in-one care program for older adults.
Dental or ride programs your state runs itself, outside your health plan.
The federal Lifeline phone program, which any qualifying household can get, whatever their plan.

What "not listed" means

We did not find that reward in the plan's documents. Your plan may still offer it. Call your plan and ask.

If your plan says it doesn't offer a reward shown here, open the document the reward links to and ask your plan to look at it with you. Plans change their rewards, and we may be out of date. Tap "Something wrong?" on that reward to tell us.

How we check counties

The plans you can join often depend on your county. Our county lists come from each state's own county lookup tools and reports. We don't guess from the general area a plan says it serves. The lists can be out of date right after a plan enters or leaves a county.

Some states don't publish county lists. For those states, the page says we have not checked which plans serve each county.

When sources disagree

If two documents give different amounts for the same reward, we show the lower one. Getting more than you expected is better than getting less.
