Most Frequently Asked Medicaid Questions:
- What is Medicaid?
Medicaid is like health insurance. It provides health coverage to eligible people of all ages.
- What is the difference between Medicaid and Medicare?
Medicare is an insurance program serving people with disabilities or who are 65 or older who have worked and “earned qualifying quarters” and are now eligible for medical coverage regardless of their income. Medicare is federally funded and administered by the Social Security Administration. Ohio’s Medicaid program is a health coverage program serving eligible low income people of all ages who do not have enough money or health insurance coverage for medical care. Medicaid is funded by both the federal government and the State of Ohio and is administered by Ohio Department of Job and Family Services.
- If I have medical coverage through Medicare or private insurance can I get Medicaid too? Should I cancel my private insurance?
Yes, you may be eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicaid may pay what Medicare does not cover. You may be eligible for Medicaid coverage even if you have other health insurance. Because Medicaid is based on income it is a good idea to keep your private health insurance.
- How long can I continue to get Medicaid coverage?
There is no time limit for most Medicaid categories. You can be covered by Medicaid as long as you meet eligibility guidelines.
