That's up to the hospital. However, it seems unlikely that the spend-down amount will cover a significant part of the expense - i.e., Medicaid is going to end up paying most of the bill.

In order to receive Medicare or Medicaid at age 42, you must be "totally and permanently disabled" as defined by Social Security regulations. This is different from your employer's determination of disability. You may receive Medicaid, even if you are not disabled per Social Security regulations, if you have minor dependent child(ren).
