I just got this link texted to me. I've heard that other states have a list of illnesses that will give you an exemption to this 80 hours per month. Does Michigan have anything like this?

Just saw the news about the freeze on funding, my whole family relies on Medicaid. Does anyone know when this will go into effect?

I work almost exactly 20 hours per week. I am an independent contractor. I don’t make an hourly wage. I don’t get paid the same for every client. I get a percentage of insurance reimbursement rates once they are paid to the org I work under and they are perpetually delayed by 3-8 weeks. I make about 12k per year gross.
What is going to happen if I get sick? Which I do, often, with bladder infections. (Menopause) when they flare I’m out for 2
weeks sometimes.
Will I get kicked off my insurance? Becuase they are making us go back 3 months of work to prove we worked. What about vacation? What about when our orgs are closed for the holidays? Does anyone have any idea what is going to happen? I’m so scared. I have a specialist for my urology issues and I take medication daily to prevent bladder infections but they still flare 3-4 times a year. If I flare and can’t make my hours I don’t know what I’m going to do. I won’t be able to afford a doctor visit and my medication.

Recently I updated my status on the FL website. What I got back shocked me. The vehicles we own were re-valued. I know what I paid for each, and that was 10 years ago. Now they are valued at 25-40% higher than I reported them.

Bank accounts. At the time I did my update, I had $80 in my checking account. Without my knowledge, my husband spoke to his mum in England, who then sent a wire transfer of what remained of his father's death payout. His father died of work related injuries and left him a small amount of money for a rainy day. It was under $3k. But just as the wire transfer happened, an app crawled through my finances leaving me with even less cash per month.

Let me explain about the wire transfer. It wouldn't cover cremation if one of us dies. Some of you spend more on rent per month.

Combined assets are what? 5k per month? They just jacked me up over the limit. How do I prove each thing, line for line? I have 30 days to figure this out and no idea where to turn.

Can I upload pictures of my vehicles? Kelly Blue Book the VINs?

Smh

Is babysitting going to be eligible to be courted as income? For
Instance I get 350 from door dash per month and around 300 for babysitting the neighbors kids? She pays via cashapp and I submit it via 1099 taxes.

Also what is considered community engagement?

Are how they decide these things going to change from state to state? Like one state allows for baby sitting and the other doesn’t?

For community engagement will they have specific sites i can volunteer at? Is caring for a family member or friend who is not a dependent counted as volunteer work?

i recently got a job. i live in a city where minimum wage is higher ($19/hr in my city vs $16 statewide) and my rent is $960/mo. as far as i am aware, i cannot make more than $1,800/mo, but i will with my current hours. however, it'll leave me with very little for food and work expenses since i don't have my driver's license. (i am working on it)

some other info: i'm 22, i rent an apartment, i am on SNAP and medicaid, and my medicaid was just renewed.

i'm pretty sure i'm classified as disabled in CO Medicaid's system since i'm an ambulatory wheelchair user and am disabled under ADA, plus i likely have some hearing loss which may cause some issues with quality of care if i don't qualify for medicaid.

my job does offer health insurance but i'm going to school full time and won't be working enough to qualify for health insurance come August. is there any information i can get on how much i can make, what i can do if i make too much but rely on medicaid for my specialists, and if the buy in program is available for me or if i have to go through SSI? i'm so confused and i just cannot get a straight answer.

I was approved for medicaid at the beginning of this month (07/06) and received a letter with two cut-out paper cards that I am supposed to sign and carry with me, but they only have basic info on them including my case number and a billing number. I have yet to receive anything else from my state, like an actual insurance card like I had a few years ago when I had received benefits. Am I missing something? I will be calling my JFS office in the morning, but was wondering if I just misunderstood something or am not reading a notice properly. Any insight is appreciated; thanks!

I apologize for how long this is, I just feel I need to thoroughly explain this situation and why I need help.

I have been trying for weeks to find an attorney or someone similar to help me fill out the paperwork for the Med Connect program in CT. They all keep telling me they don't specialize in that despite them having Medicaid paperwork or Social Services help on their websites!

I'm at my wits end! I'm 23, have two chronic illnesses, and can work (just not a ton). But even when I'm not struggling too much with my health, I can't afford to work more or I'll be kicked off of Husky D for making too much money! I'm allowed to make 22k a year, or I'm kicked off. I have Type 1 Diabetes which is extremely expensive to have due to the price of all my equipment and medications. I also have gastroparesis, and need medications for that. Plus I had two ER visits this month due to it (which is rare but it happens). This is why I need benefits still. I applied for disability 2 years ago when I was really suffering and was denied. I have improved since then, and realized I don't want to be restricted by being on disability. But I am still disabled, Type 1 Diabetes is a 24/7 job, and it's exhausting and painful at times. Gastroparesis also makes life hell often, but I can still work. That's also a disability.

However, I cannot have a life on less than 22k a year. I can barely get savings together because all I can afford are part time jobs that have to give me less then 20 hours a week to avoid going over 1,800 a month. I also have to buy specialty groceries because I'm on a strict diet due to my gastroparesis (no gluten or dairy, and very few raw/fresh veggies and fruits, which is like a 50% increase over normal groceries). I can't save for big car repairs or replacements like tires, and my car payment every month is expensive because it was the cheapest any company would give me (newer driver, no accidents ever, but being new raises my payment). I also can't look into career opportunities since they're all full time. I'm locked into poverty and want to get out.

Med Connect seems like the perfect program. As far as I'm concerned, my understanding of the program is that I would continue to get Husky D benefits, but make up to 85k a year instead of 22k. A house and car do not count as assets (since they're used for living and travel to medical appointments). The only downside is I can't have that much in savings. Not sure where investment accounts fall, but certain programs like 401ks don't count against savings. It would allow me to pursue a career for myself, and work more.

The reason I need help is because I was already denied for disability, I don't want to be denied this program too. I think if I had legal help filling it out, I would have a higher chance of being approved (especially because I have a very poor understanding of legal terms, and may have thought I filled out the disability paperwork correctly and actually did a bad job).

I don't want to be a burden to myself or my loved ones, I want to have a full time job, a career, a house of my own someday! I can't pay for that right now, I can barely buy groceries, gas, and my car payment every month. The rest goes into a sad savings account.

What should I do? Is there anyone in CT that even helps with this sort of thing?? Is there another option if this isn't possible?? I'm so stuck :(

Hello, has anyone received a semiannual review only for Medicaid in Pennsylvania for a family of 4 with children included?

Hey, I have a question: I have a small ABA practice. Maryland Medicaid now wants us to put referring doctors NPI in the claims to be able to bill after July 1st.

I just figured out that the last preauthorisation I got was justified by an assessment from 7.2024(the client was 4 y.o. back then, non verbal w/ dangerous behaviors). I still got preauthorised though and have an opportunity to bill until the end of august.

Am I screwed in case of an audit? Or since I got the preauthorisation(they request the copy of the assessment report)I’m ok?

Hello all, how do you calculate income for self employed partner and W2 for myself? Trying to get my baby's on Medicaid again, but i did not understand the Social worker really good due to language barrier this morning. i am in the state of Texas

Hello, my mom is currently in the Pace program, but we are having a hard time finding her Medicaid memory care facilities. I read about the transitions waiver/mi choice . If I apply for this, could I possibly lose benefits /ovelap and is it worth the risk?
Thank you for your time to read my post and any insight☮️

I am a U.S. citizen and I am considering sponsoring my parents for a U.S. green card so they can come live with me in Massachusetts.

My dad has income from his retirement pension + investments in Brazil. My mother has no income whatsoever. They are both 73 yeas old.

Would any of them be eligible for MassHealth?

I’m looking into Medicaid assistance through the state of Missouri for my wife (33yo female), my son (8yo male), and my daughter (5yo female). We are also planning to have a third child at some point in 2027.

I currently have insurance through my full time job but, I am unable to financially afford to put my entire family on my work insurance while also trying to meet our monthly finances.

My wife is unemployed and she is a stay at home mom. Her and my children do not have any disabilities, or chronic medical issues, and neither my wife nor I are former military.

I’m trying to read through the Missouri Medicaid income eligibility charts and I’m likely over thinking this but I’m having a tough time figuring out the calculations; as well as which program type my family would fall into.

What is the financial cut off for a family of 4 in regards to either gross or net annual/monthly income? What about for a family of 5?

Any help or info at all is much appreciated.

Thank you!
