Does $16 an hour qualify for Medicaid?

Question

Hubby got a job that had insurance, the insurance would be almost $300 a month for us. We all already have full coverage so I don’t see the sense in it when we’re barely scraping along now. He’s convinced we need it, I feel it’s throwing away money. Am I in the wrong?

Answer

If you already have full coverage, I wouldn’t get more. Especially when money is an issue. 300 isn’t adding a small expense

Answer

Depends, what state do you live in? And Is that the only income?

Answer

Depending on your house hold size and what state you live in you may lose your Medicaid.

Answer

Do you have Income as well? What’s your family size? Those are both factors. It may be worth applying to see if you qualify

Answer

If your employer offers insurance and it’s determined to be “affordable”, you may lose Medicaid. I wouldn’t hide this from your case worker though. By not reporting, you’re committing fraud and risk the legal consequences. You need to report that insurance is offered at his place of employment and submit all of the supporting documents/paperwork/etc for that.

Answer

It would probably get denied because you will need to add both of y’all since y’all are married. If you don’t, that will be committing fraud.

Answer

Me and my husband have always had high deductible plan with an HSA account much better in the long run
