There is no automatic transfer of eligibility from one state to another. You cannot receive Medicaid in more than one state at the same time; so, you will need to terminate your Medicaid coverage in NJ. Get a letter from your NJ Medicaid office to that effect that you can give to the FL Medicaid office when you apply there.
If you are visiting Florida and need medical care, you will need to find a provider who is willing to bill your State's Medicaid program.If you are moving to Florida and are eligible in your current state, you will probably be eligible in Florida. However, one cannot transfer Medicaid from state to state. You will have to have your current coverage terminated, and apply in Florida.
From what I understand medicaid does not transfer from state to state, you must apply to whatever state you are moving to.
No, the FL case must be closed and a case opened in NC.
Yes you can! I moved from Cincinnati to Kissimmee and used my Ohio Direction card while waiting to transfer to Florida.
You will need to apply at your local departmental of Health and Human services for medicaid in Ohio.

It depends on how the trust is drafted. A properly drafted irrevocable trust, in Florida, will be invisible to Medicaid (Medicare doesn't factor assets into whether or not one is qualified the way Medicaid does). However, transfers of assets into the trust must be done 5 years before applying to medicaid or medicaid will assess a transfer penalty (this is referred to as the "five year lookback"). The transfer penalty is a period of ineligibility for certain medicaid benefits depending on the size of the transfer. As a result, irrevocable trust planning would not be appropriate for all Medicaid planning scenarios.
Yes, if the NY provider is willing to bill Florida Medicaid. If you're moving to NY, you'll need to get your Florida Medicaid canceled, and apply in NY.
Yes.
How do I cancel my Alabama Medicaid now that I've moved to Florida?
I'm not familiar with Ohio Medicaid. However, in general, Federal regulations require that the State's Medicaid program must be the same throughout that state.
Florida is south and a little east from the state of Ohio.
