IowaCare
IowaCare is a limited health care program that covers adults ages 19-64 who would not normally be covered by Medicaid. This program covers some inpatient and outpatient services, physician, and advanced registered nurse practitioner services, limited dental services, routine yearly physicals, smoking cessation, and limited prescription drug benefits. All services must be received and ordered by a participating provider to be covered.
- You must be a resident of Iowa to apply. You can qualify for Iowa residency by getting an Iowa driver’s license.
- IowaCare does not cover doctors in Fairfield. IowaCare only covers the University of Iowa hospital center.
For complete information and an application to the IowaCare program, see the IowaCare website.
