Food Services

Michigan Medicaid and your Medicaid health plan are offering food services to improve your health. You may qualify for one of these services at no cost to you. The food service(s) include:

• Medically Tailored Home Delivered Meal

It is up to you whether you use a food service if you qualify. Your Medicaid coverage and access to other medical services will stay the same if you use a food service or choose not to.

You can file a grievance or appeal about the food service, for example, if you are not approved for a food service. Keep reading to learn more about your food service options and if you may qualify for a food service. If you have any questions, call Member Services for more information.
