State Medicaid programs have the option to cover supported employment services, but use of these services by the Medicaid population has not been widely studied. Using data from 2017-2019 Research Identifiable Files (RIF), which are derived from Transformed Medicaid Statistical Information System (T-MSIS) Analytic Files (TAF), this brief identified the number and percentage of Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) beneficiaries ages 14-65 who were using supported employment services in 2019. We categorized these service users by beneficiary demographics and state.
This research was conducted under contract between HHS/ASPE’s Office of Behavioral Health, Disability, and Aging Policy (BHDAP) and Mathematica. Additional research in this area is available at the ASPE Aging & Disability page and the ASPE Long-Term Services & Supports/Long-Term Care page.
