What is Medicaid?
Medicaid is a safety net. Many wrongly assume that Medicaid is a program for the poor, but that is not the case. There are exorbitant costs associated with skilled nursing care, ranging anywhere from $10,000 to $16,000 monthly, totaling a whopping $120,000–$200,000 annually. Even individuals who worked their whole lives and saved a considerable portion of their earnings are likely to require some assistance with the staggering cost of a nursing home stay.
The government designed the Medicaid program to do just that. Under Medicaid, quality long-term care in Rhode Island is available even for those who can’t afford the high cost. There is, however, a caveat. The numerous rules and countless guidelines that govern Rhode Island Medicaid eligibility make the application process very confusing. If you are wondering how to qualify for Medicaid in RI, our Medicaid specialists can guide you through the process, enabling you to make informed and effective decisions.
First of all, Medicaid looks to establish three fundamentals.
• Financial status
• Medical need
• Citizenship status
