The Healthy Frontiers project started in 2010 to provide an inexpensive alternative for uninsured Wyoming residents. The program was intended to save the state money in the long run by emphasizing preventative treatment.
The program is designed for people without health insurance who earn too much money to qualify for Medicaid. The program is also designed to encourage management of health issues and a relationship with a primary care provider in order to prevent more costly medical care in the future.
