Alien Emergency Medical Assistance (AEMA) | Allen County Department Of Job And Family Services

Provides a State and Federally funded medical care benefit (a form of Medicaid) to foreign nationals, immigrants, refugees/entrants/asylees, permanent residents, and undocumented persons who are hospitalized for childbirth or experience an emergency medical condition during their stay in the county, and who have limited resources. If eligibility is satisfied, the hospital will be paid directly for the care received. Other providers whose services are directly connected to the emergency event may also be paid, as determined on a case-by-case basis.
