According to everything I hear I qualify for medicaid BUT I also heard that you have to have less than $5000 in the bank to qualify for Medicaid. Anyone know what the deal is?

I thought it meant ” to be in a position to obtain a healthcare policy”. the ACA are using the healthcare industry’s definition of “eligible”, which means “to actually already possess a healthcare policy”, ergo you are eligible for treatment etc.

To qualify for the subsidies, one simply has to terminate their policy, not until 11.59 p.m. On December 31st of course.
