Medicaid Buy-In

Medicaid Buy-In is a program designed to support individuals with disabilities who want to work and maintain Medicaid coverage. Under this program, individuals who have disabilities that might otherwise disqualify them from Medicaid due to their income or assets can pay a premium to “buy in” to the Medicaid program. By paying these premiums, individuals can access healthcare coverage and services provided by Medicaid while remaining employed. Medicaid Buy-In programs vary by state and may have different eligibility requirements and premium amounts, but they generally aim to support individuals with disabilities in achieving greater financial independence and participation in the workforce.
