Beneficiaries Receiving Specific Benefits
 

Nearly half of I & R/Problem Solving and 60 percent of intensive support beneficiaries were receiving Medicare, with similar numbers receiving Medicaid. In terms of other benefits, food stamps and subsidized housing were most commonly reported for both groups, particularly for those receiving intensive benefit support, while Workers Compensation and unemployment insurance were consistently the least commonly reported.
