Office of Healthcare Financing
The Office of Healthcare Financing (OHCF) was created to bring public health care programs under one umbrella for administrative purposes.
The OHCF administrator serves as the State Medicaid Director with responsibility for oversight and technical assistance provided to the divisions that administer Medicaid within the Department of Health.
The OHCF comprises of three distinct units: EqualityCare (Wyoming's Medicaid program), Kid Care CHIP (Wyoming's State Children's Health Insurance Program), and Office of Pharmacy Services.

EqualityCare is the name chosen by the Wyoming Department of Health for its public health insurance programs. EqualityCare helps pay for certain health care services, and is available to qualifying families, children, individuals who are aged, blind or disabled, and qualified or non-qualified aliens.
