DO YOU NEED HELP WITH HEALTHCARE COSTS? LEARN ABOUT MEDICAID ELIGIBILITY AND OPTIONS

WHAT IS MEDICAID?

SCHEDULE A VIRTUAL ONE-ON-ONE APPOINTMENT TO LEARN MORE. We can explain eligibility, income, and asset rules, options for spend down process, the differences between Medicaid and Medicare, and assist with an application. Trained professionals at PLOWS Council on Aging have helped thousands of adults over 60 years of age and adults with disabilities understand and navigate the Medicaid process. There is no fee for this service.

Medicaid is a state and federal program that pays for medical assistance services for people with low-income. Medicaid and other programs assist members of various qualifying age/income groups, including some Medicare recipients, in paying for doctor visits, hospital care, and prescription drugs.
