Persons with Disabilities

Are you PULLING YOUR HAIR OUT trying to figure out the
INCOME GUIDELINES for MA Eligibility for Persons with
Disabilities?  See the summaries below to try to fill in the puzzle . . .

Maximum Allowable
Income Limits 

* The income limits increase every February or March.  These limits pertain to the year 2001.

And, for those of you with large monthly expenses whose incomes are TOO HIGH for MA, you can use some of your monthly medical expenses to reduce your "countable" income, and then qualify under MA to have the remainder
of the month's medical bills paid!  (See the "spenddown" section on
pages 30-31 of this manual for more details.)
