ForwardHealth: Wisconsin Chronic Disease Program

The Wisconsin Chronic Disease Program (WCDP) helps people with chronic diseases get care. Chronic diseases are health conditions that are long-lasting. WCDP helps people get services and supplies that treat:

  • Adult cystic fibrosis
  • Hemophilia
  • Renal Disease

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) funds the program.

Program members must pay some copays and deductibles. If you make more than 300% of the federal poverty level each year, you must pay a certain amount yourself before getting benefits.

The state gets paid for benefits it provides through the Wisconsin Estate Recovery Program.
