Medicaid Planning

What is Medicaid?

Medicaid is a joint state and federal program intended for people and families with low income and resources. Medicaid services include assistance for long-term care, including nursing home and in-home care.

You may be eligible for Medicaid, but it can be difficult to determine your eligibility. Requirements are set at the federal and state level; federal law sets minimum requirements for the states, and state laws are administered locally through the Lycoming County Office of the Department of Public Welfare. Further complicating matters is the fact that both the federal and state governments regularly change the eligibility requirements and restrictions for Medicaid.
