Medicaid?

Posted by garnet71 on February 23, 2009, at 1:37:30

So I posted this on another board (there really is no partition for this question), and some input is really needed....thx.

I think all the states are different. Where I live if I make over $400 a month (a caseworker told me this hasn't been changed for 25 years), I can't qualify for medicaid unless I am 'disabled'.

There is a form my PDoc has to fill out for me--he can indicated I was temporarily disabled, under 12 months.

If I was close to having a meltdown with severe anxiety and other mental health/cognitive issues, had to quit my job and take leave from (one of my unis) school, is that enough to be considered temporarily disabled?

Disabled, on the form, means I am unable to work right now. While in school full-time (still working on 1 degree), I can't work right now. I can barely handle school at the moment with trying to get my house ready to sell and a huge to do list that was ignored since last year, and did barely anything--as far as homework, responsibilities, house, etc., from mid-December until just recently. I still think its too soon to go back to work while finishing UG degree with the other periphial issues, as I am being really, really careful and trying new med regime.

Has anyone ever claimed temporary disability (not social security disability), for temporary medical benefits/medicaid. It doesn't seem enough for disability--I'm not sure if my situation qualifies.
