What type of individuals does Medicaid for Qualified Disabled Workers assist?

Medicaid for Qualified Disabled Workers is designed specifically to assist individuals who are disabled yet still able to maintain employment. This program provides health coverage to those who are working but do not earn enough to qualify for regular Medicaid benefits. It allows individuals to keep more of their income from employment while still being eligible for health care assistance, thereby supporting their ability to work and maintain economic independence.

This focus on employed individuals reinforces the program's overall goal of encouraging workforce participation among disabled individuals, ensuring they have access to necessary medical services while managing their careers.
