What We Do
The NH Medicaid to Schools Resource Center offers several resources to support the implementation of school-based health services in New Hampshire.
Medicaid to Schools Collaborative and 1:1 Consultation
The monthly Medicaid to Schools Collaborative meetings are held virtually to answer questions, hold a space for discussion and solutions, and provide training and presentations from subject matter experts. These meetings occur on the first Friday of each month from 9:00-10:30am. Contact us at schoolmedicaid@jsi.com to receive Zoom information.
JSI is available to meet with individuals outside of the monthly Medicaid to Schools Collaborative meetings. If you would like to meet with the team at JSI outside of the monthly meetings, please send an email to schoolmedicaid@jsi.com to request a meeting.

Data and Evaluation
The NH Medicaid to Schools Resource Center collects, analyzes, and reports data related to the Medicaid to Schools program. In 2024, the Center developed a survey to better understand how the New Hampshire Medicaid to Schools program is being administered in NH schools. Findings from this survey can be found on our resource page.
The NH Medicaid to Schools Resource Center can also assist with data collection, analysis, and reporting for Medicaid to Schools related topics. If you have questions about data requests or have data you’d like to share with the team, please contact us.
New Hampshire School Site Visits
The NH Medicaid to Schools Resource Center conducts site visits with schools to better understand how Medicaid to Schools is implemented in real time and offer a space for discussion and potential solutions with school staff, partners, and administrators.
