If you already have Medicaid and your pregnant and want to get married to the father of the baby will me and he baby still be able to have Medicaid?

After approval for medicaid due to pregnancy, both you and your unborn child should remain covered by medicaid through the duration of your pregnancy, plus two months past the month of childbirth. After the birth of your child, the baby should be eligible for newborn medicaid. Both parents of an eligible child may or may not become eligible for medicaid, depending on income and other factors.

I am 46 years old make little income not pregnant and have no children I am sick why can I not get Medicaid?

This is straight from the medicaid website - it basically says that not everyone with low income is eligible for medicaid, there are other screening tools. Even if you are low-income, having certain assets may prevent you from being eligible. "Medicaid does not provide medical assistance for all people with limited incomes and resources. Even under the broadest provisions of the Federal statute (except for emergency services for certain persons), the Medicaid program does not provide health care services for everyone. You must qualify for Medicaid. Low-income is only one test for Medicaid eligibility; assets and resources are also tested against established thresholds. As noted earlier, categorically needy persons who are eligible for Medicaid may or may not also receive cash assistance from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program or from the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program. Medically needy persons who would be categorically eligible except for income or assets may become eligible for Medicaid solely because of excessive medical expenses."

Does Alaska have a Medicaid HIPP program?

Only a few states have active HIPP programs. Signed into law by President G.W.Bush in 1988 and enacted in 1990, it has not proven to save state Medicaid programs any money. The reason is simple, the patients that Medicaid serves (poor children, nursing home residents, very poor adults and disabled) were previously mostly uninsurable in the private insurance markets, and so the cost to Medicaid would be higher if it paid the private insurance premium, rather than just directly cover the cost of care under Medicaid. With the passage of the Affordable Care Act, health insurance companies can no longer deny coverage, or drop those who become too expensive by virtue of a disabling illness, but the premiums are far more expensive than what Medicaid pays for the care of those patients. So they remain in Medicaid, the public insurance plan with the lowest administrative costs, and no profit margin!


Does Medicaid cover health care costs for all poor people?

This is directly from the CMS website (Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services) www.cms.gov Medicaid does not provide medical assistance for all poor persons. Even under the broadest provisions of the Federal statute (except for emergency services for certain persons), the Medicaid program does not provide health care services, even for very poor persons, unless they are in one of the designated eligibility groups. Low income is only one test for Medicaid eligibility; assets and resources are also tested against established thresholds. As noted earlier, categorically needy persons who are eligible for Medicaid may or may not also receive cash assistance from the TANF program or from the SSI program. Medically needy persons who would be categorically eligible except for income or assets may become eligible for Medicaid solely because of excessive medical expenses.
