If a person has committed a crime outside of Wisconsin and is incarcerated by that state in a correctional facility in that state, the person is considered to be a resident of that state and not Wisconsin. Example 5 Connor resides in Wisconsin. He commits a crime in Illinois and is incarcerated in an Illinois correctional facility. Connor is an Illinois resident while he is residing in the facility in Illinois. He is not eligible for suspended or full-benefit Medicaid in Wisconsin since he is not a Wisconsin resident. 13.8.5 Services for Youth Youth who are incarcerated and enrolled in suspended Medicaid can receive HealthCheck screening services and targeted case management during certain times if they are either: • Under 21 years old. • Under 26 years old and meet the criteria to be a Former Foster Care Youth (see BadgerCare Plus Handbook Section 11.2 Former Foster Care Youth).
