DC HealthCare Alliance
 
What is the Alliance?
 
The DC HealthCare Alliance (Alliance) program is designed to provide medical assistance to needy District residents who are not eligible for federally-financed Medicaid benefits. This includes non-disabled childless adults, non-qualified aliens and some individuals who are over-income for Medicaid. The Alliance program provides comprehensive health services, including preventative, primary, acute, and chronic care services such as clinic services, emergency care, immunizations, in-patient and out-patient hospital care, physician services, and prescription drugs.
 
How can I apply?
 
You can apply at any IMA Service Center. Please call (202) 724-5506 to identify the Service Center nearest you. You can also apply at various clinics and medical centers. Please call (202) 724-5506 to verify hours and locations.
 
Where do I find information on the Alliance?
 
More information may be obtained by viewing the IMA Policy Manual. The Alliance policy can be found in Part VII, Chapter 4 of the IMA Policy Manual.
