Since 2001, KFF’s Program on Medicaid and the Uninsured has administered regular surveys of states about their home- and community-based services (HCBS) programs and their eligibility policies for people who are eligible for Medicaid on the basis of having a disability or being ages 65 and older (e.g., the “non-MAGI” eligibility pathways). Those reports are compiled here.

The Medicaid HCBS survey is sent to officials administering Medicaid HCBS programs in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The survey is sent to each state official responsible for overseeing the administration of HCBS programs (including home health, personal care, and waiver services). Before 2015, KFF and researchers at University of California San Francisco conducted the survey. Starting in 2016, KFF and Watts Health Policy Consulting have conducted the annual survey. Not all years’ surveys are available because the survey was not administered in some years and in other years, KFF replaced earlier reports with the most recent data.
Surveys are organized by the year in which they were administered, which may not match the date of publication or the year of data reported. Some reports include data from more than one year.
Report links for some prior years are no longer on our website, but may be requested via KFF’s Contact Us form.

Medicaid is an important source of health and long-term care coverage for people with disabilities and those who are ages 65 and older. The Medicaid pathways in which eligibility is based on old age or disability are known as “non-MAGI” pathways because they do not use the Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) financial methodology that applies to pathways for pregnant people, parents, and children with low incomes. In addition to considering old age/disability status and income, many non-MAGI pathways also have asset limits. Since 2015, this survey has been conducted by KFF and Watts Health Policy Consulting. Not all years’ surveys are available because the survey was not administered in some years and in other years, KFF replaced earlier reports with the most recent data.
Surveys are organized by the year in which they were administered, which may not match the date of publication or the year of data reported. Some reports include data from more than one year.
