Are You Aware that General Assistance Medical Care Funds Were Cut During the Budget Shortfall?
Cabrini Partnership residents and an estimated 33,000 others throughout the state will lose General Assistance Medical Care (GAMC) in March 2010 due to unallotments.
General Assistance Medical Care is Minnesota’s public health insurance program for the state’s poorest adults. They live on 7,800 a year or less and do not have minor children in the household. Most are men (60 percent), most struggle with mental illness (70 percent) and/or chemical dependency and many have chronic physical disabilities (40 percent). In 2008, more than 77,000 Minnesotans used the program—with the average of 35,000 individuals relying on it at any one time.
