The Wisconsin Chronic Disease Program (WCDP) offers assistance to Wisconsin residents with chronic renal disease, hemophilia, and adult cystic fibrosis. The WCDP is funded entirely by state dollars. The program pays health care providers for disease-related services and supplies provided to certified WCDP members after all other sources of payment have been exhausted.
WCDP members are responsible for certain copayments and annual deductibles determined by the program. Members whose annual income exceeds 300 percent of the Federal Poverty Level must pay a certain percent of out-of-pocket expense before becoming eligible to receive WCDP benefits. The state seeks repayment of WCDP benefits provided to members under the Estate Recovery Program.
