The Medically Needy Program Explained

Even if some Floridians have income that is over the limit for regular Medicaid, the Medically Needy Program may help them access Medicaid in months when their medical bills are high. When you are enrolled in Medically Needy, Medicaid can be activated for any month in which your medical bills reach a certain amount. This amount is called your “share of cost.” Learn how it works and what steps to take.
