How Earnings Impact Medicaid
You can use this toolkit to aid you in understanding and explaining to youth and their families: how Medicaid is impacted by earning; and that Medicaid will, in most cases, will continue under the 1619(b) work incentive when the monthly SSI payment is not available due to work and earnings.
5. An SSI beneficiary has qualified for 1619(b) Medicaid, after losing the right to an SSI payment through countable earned income. Some months later, the beneficiary’s gross monthly wages are reduced to a point where he or she would once again qualify for an SSI payment. This beneficiary can once again start receiving SSI payments but only if a medical review is conducted to see if he or she still meets the SSI disability requirements.
