About Medicaid

Medicaid is a federal health program that provides funding for health services to eligible residents of American Samoa. Enacted in 1965, Medicaid provides the Federal matching funds available to states/territories for the cost they incurred in paying health care providers for delivering covered services to eligible individuals.

State/Territory participation is voluntary, and American Samoa has participated since 1984. Medicaid operates as an assistance program and does not require financial contribution from the recipients. The State Medicaid Agency under the Office of the Governor is committed in becoming an effective and efficient agency that administers the Medicaid Program in American Samoa to achieve its mission.

The State Medicaid Agency is funded by both the Federal and the American Samoa Government.
