Medicaid and Long-Term Care (MLTC) oversees the Nebraska Medicaid program, home and community based services, and the State Unit on Aging.
Medicaid provides health care services to low-income families, seniors, and individuals with disabilities.
Home and community-based services are available to those who qualify for Medicaid waivers, such as the elderly, adults and children with disabilities, and infants and toddlers with special needs.
The State Unit on Aging works with public and private service providers to help people live in their preferred settings and be active in their communities.
Nebraska's aging network includes eight Area Agencies on Aging.

Nationwide Cyberattack on Change Healthcare
The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services is aware of the recent nationwide cyberattack on Change Healthcare, a subsidiary of UnitedHealth Group. UnitedHealth is a provider for Nebraska's Medicaid Managed Care Program. Change Healthcare provides services to all three of Nebraska's Managed Care providers. The Department is working with its Managed Care providers and other stakeholders on this matter to determine if Nebraskans' information was involved. DHHS will monitor the situation closely and provide updates when they become available.
