Medicaid Access Eligibility & Re-Certification
|
|
|
Florida Medicaid is the medical assistance program that provides access to health
care for low-income families and individuals and also assists aged and disabled
people with the costs of nursing facility care and other medical expenses. Eligibility
for Medicaid is usually based on the family’s or individual's income and assets.
Continucare understands that having the knowledge and understanding of the
eligibility requirements can be the difference between receiving or not receiving the
medical care you or your family needs. We have added new Medicaid eligibility and
re-certification stations at several of our medical centers in your community. We invite
you to learn more about Medicaid and to visit one of these medical centers to find
your eligibility status and options.

Who is Eligible for Medicaid?
An individual must meet specific eligibility requirements in order to get Medicaid
and based on those requirements, individuals may be eligible for full or limited
benefits, depending on the program. Medicaid programs are designed to
provide benefits to three basic groups:
- Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipients
- Children and families
- Aged, blind and disabled people, including people needing institutional care

What Benefits Are Available Through Medicaid?
For each group stated above, there are varying levels of limited and full benefits
that are covered with each plan. Once eligibility is determined, your Medicaid
Access representative will provide details on what benefits you or your family
will receive. They will then walk you through the enrollment process so you or
your family can begin to receive needed medical care.
