This website explains that Alaska's Department of Health and Social Services has been restructured into two separate departments as of July 2022. The Department of Health now handles Medicaid, health care services, and public assistance programs that help families pay for medical care. They provide Medicaid coverage for children with cancer and other serious illnesses, along with emergency medical funding when families face unexpected treatment costs.
The Department of Health processes Medicaid claims and works with healthcare providers to ensure families get the coverage they need. If your child has cancer, they can help you navigate Alaska's Medicaid system and connect you with financial assistance programs. The state is committed to avoiding any disruption in services during this transition, so families should continue receiving the same level of support.
