You or someone you know may now be eligible for MaineCare or other programs!

 

As of January 1, 2011, the Maine Department of Health and Human Services has been using the following new Federal Poverty Levels (FPL) to determine eligibility for MaineCare and other programs. See our Online Health Care Guide for the new income guidelines:

People who were not eligible last year may be now if their countable monthly income is below the new guidelines.

 

Please keep in mind that often there are income exclusions or deductions that may lower the monthly countable income for some programs.
