Why Medicaid Matters for People with Disabilities
In 2010, the Affordable Care Act (ACA) expanded Medicaid eligibility for seniors and people with disabilities. Medicaid services provide a critical path to both healthcare and long-term care, including home and community-based services.

Medicaid services also enable some people with disabilities live independently in their communities, work, and pay taxes.

Healthcare Stories are free, short videos that illustrate the obstacles and barriers that still stand in the way of getting appropriate health care for many people with disabilities. The project began collecting stories in 2011.
