General Assistance Medical Programs (GAMP)

 

What is GA-MP?

The General Assistance Medical Program ( GAMP ) is a County and State funded program
which purchases health care for qualified Milwaukee County residents. As the program has
limited funds, a set of eligibility requirements has been established.

A network of providers, including thirteen community-based clinics, has been established
to act as the gatekeeper for all of the services the client requires. Some of these clinics
have more than one site. Services include, but are not limited to:

• Primary Care
• Pharmacist
• Specialty Care
• Diagnostics
• Lab
• Inpatient Hospitilization

 

At the time of application, the person chooses the community clinic he/she would like
to use for primary care. The client, if approved, must use this clinic and its network
for the 6-month or 180 day eligibility period. At the end of each 6 months, the person
must reapply at one of the sites or the clinic they belong to in order to determine
continued eligibility. The client also has the option of remaining with the same clinic or,
if preferred, choosing another one of the clinics for care.
