What is the income limit for Medicaid eligibility?

The income limit for Medicaid eligibility varies by state. Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that provides healthcare coverage to low-income individuals and families. The income limit is based on the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) and is expressed as a percentage. Each state sets its own income limit within certain federal guidelines. Some states have expanded Medicaid to cover individuals with incomes up to 138% of the FPL, while others have more restrictive income limits. It is recommended to check with your state's Medicaid program or visit the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services website for the most up-to-date income eligibility requirements in your state.
