Medicare Savings Program Financial Eligibility Guidelines by State
To qualify for the Medicare Savings Programs, you must meet your state’s income and asset guidelines. The charts below give you the eligibility guidelines for each state. Use the State Selection links to jump directly to a specific state.
Even if your income (money you take in, for example, Social Security payments that you get or wages that your earn) or assets (resources such as checking accounts, stocks and some property) are higher than the guidelines in your state, you should still apply, because certain kinds of income and assets may not be counted.
The way that your income and assets are counted to determine if you are eligible for an MSP varies from state to state.
In all states, the following income will never be counted:
- The first $20 of your monthly income;
- The first $65 of monthly wages;
- One-half of your monthly wages (after the $65 is deducted);
- Food stamps.
Some states may not count more income, and/or may exclude things from your income, such as the money you use to pay health insurance premiums (for example, Part B premiums). Also, if there are more than two people in your household, in some states you can have higher income.
In all states, the following assets will never be counted:
- Your primary house;
- Your car;
- Household goods and wedding/engagement rings;
- Burial spaces;
- Burials funds for you and your spouse valued up to $1,500 each;
- Life insurance with a cash value of less than $1,500.
Many states do not count other types of assets. Some states do not have an asset limit.
NOTICE: As of January 1, 2010, states are required to increase their Medicare Savings Program (MSP) asset levels to match the Federal Low Income Subsidy (LIS) asset levels. In 2010, the LIS asset levels are $6,600 and $9,910. The numbers listed below do not reflect these changes, so your state's asset limit may be higher than what is listed on this chart. You should call your local Medicaid office for more information.
