Medicaid Advisory Committee
The Medicaid Advisory Committee gives advice and guidance about Medicaid in Wisconsin. The group talks with the Medicaid director and staff about Medicaid policies and services. Input helps shape how Medicaid works for people across Wisconsin.
Members attend four online meetings each year. They talk with the Medicaid director and staff about program plans and decisions. They also get updates, have discussions, and ask questions.
The Medicaid director selects the committee members. Members participate for 3 years.
All committee meetings are open to the public. Time is set aside at the beginning of each meeting for comments from the public.

The MAC holds four meetings each year that are scheduled at least 30 days ahead of time. The March 2026 meeting date and time is TBD.
