TennCare
TennCare is Tennessee's Medicaid program which serves more than 1.4 million Tennesseans.
TennCare members are primarily low-income pregnant women, children and individuals who are elderly or have a disability. TennCare covers approximately 20 percent of the state’s population, 50 percent of the state’s births, and 50 percent of the state’s children.
TennCare is one of the oldest Medicaid managed care programs in the country, having begun on January 1, 1994. The TennCare program operates under a Section 1115 waiver from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) in the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Unlike traditional fee-for-service Medicaid, TennCare is an integrated, full-risk, managed care program.
