Spend down is the amount one must incur in medical expenses (paid or unpaid) before Medicaid eligibility begins. It is the difference between one's non-exempt income and assets and the income and asset standards in one's State - e.g., non-exempt income = $800/month/non-exempt assets = 0; State income standard = $700/month; spend down = $100.
