Advantage Program
Each year, more than 20,000 Oklahomans receive services through the AdVantage Program. This program is provided by the Home and Community-Based Services division of the Oklahoma State Department of Health. These Medicaid services help people stay in their home instead of going into a nursing home. The program assists frail elders and adults who have physical disabilities.
