Medicaid/NC

Overview

Medicaid in North Carolina is administered by the NC DHHS DMA (NC Department of Health and Human Services Division of Medical Assistance); the NC DHHS DMA home page appears to also be the focal point for information about both Medicaid in NC and another program called NC Health Choice for Children (NCHC) which "provides funding to extend health care coverage to roughly 115,000 children each month whose family income exceeds Medicaid financial eligibility criteria".

Eligibility - EIS

There does not appear to be any human-readable manual or official rules for determining eligibility for NC Medicaid; rather, eligibility is determined through entering the potential client's information into a mainframe-based computer program called the Eligibility Information System (EIS).
