Mi Via: Choosing Self-Direction
Mi Via, New Mexico’s Medicaid Self-Directed Waiver Program, is a program choice offered to New Mexico residents who currently receive services through one of four Medicaid waiver programs (Disabled and Elderly, Developmental Disabilities, Medically Fragile and AIDS), or who have a brain injury and are eligible for Home and Community-Based Services. Upon meeting Medical and Financial eligibility for Medicaid waiver services, a participant may choose Mi Via. Mi Via gives participants the opportunity to decide how they want to live their lives, where and how they will live, and what services and supports they will buy. This video shares the lives of individuals who have chosen Mi Via, and are happy with the choice because it will help them to reach their own goals, hopes and dreams.
