Women’s Health and Family
Planning Medicaid Waiver
• SB 747 by Senator John Carona: Texas Medicaid will provide
basic medical check-ups and birth control services to women
ages 18 and older, up to 185% of the poverty line ($2,559/month
pre-tax income for a family of 3 in 2005).
• Currently in Texas, working mothers must live at or below 23% of
the poverty line to qualify for Medicaid (less than $308/month for
a family of 3) and childless women can’t qualify at all – so the
waiver could help many thousands of women who can’t get full
Medicaid benefits.
– Texas has the highest % of uninsured women 18-64 (29.3%) in the nation (U.S.
average is 18.6%)
– About 40% of Texas women live below 200% of poverty, and 52% of them are
uninsured.
• State still finalizing approval with federal officials; January 2007
is the tentative start-up date.

Boosting Your Community’s
Share of State Spending
In 2005, Dallas/Collin/Denton Counties accounted for
12% of state spending, but were home to 16% of the
state’s residents (average per capita state spending:
$2,300 in 2005, versus $3,016 for all Texas counties)
How to improve that statistic:
 Work with legislators to see that state formulas to distribute
federal funds (county allocations, rates, regional distributions)
don’t put local service providers at a disadvantage
 Make sure that eligible residents are being served by
education and HHS programs
 Understand what budget cuts (10% reduction proposals for
2008-09) will cost in lost funds and the services they provide
