The&nbsp;<a href="https://www.medicaid.gov/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.medicaid.gov/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Medicaid</a>&nbsp;program that operates as a state and federal cooperative effort from coast to coast provides a vital safety net for low-income Americans who can’t afford health insurance. Each state administers its own customized program based on Federal guidelines. The Mississippi program is managed by the&nbsp;<a href="https://medicaid.ms.gov/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://medicaid.ms.gov/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Division of Medicaid</a>&nbsp;and serves&nbsp;<a href="http://files.kff.org/attachment/fact-sheet-medicaid-state-MS" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://files.kff.org/attachment/fact-sheet-medicaid-state-MS" rel="noopener noreferrer">one-quarter</a> of the state’s population.&nbsp; Qualifying for Medicaid Long-Term Care Coverage Blind and disabled adults and the elderly who meet the Mississippi Medicaid program’s eligibility requirements can receive coverage for physician and specialist care, inpatient, outpatient and emergency hospital services, prescription drugs and long-term care in a nursing home. To qualify, applicants must be aged 65 or older&nbsp;— or blind or disabled if aged 64 or younger — and American citizens or legal immigrants.&nbsp;Biloxi&nbsp;residents who successfully apply for <a href="https://www.ssa.gov/ssi/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.ssa.gov/ssi/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Supplemental Security Income</a>&nbsp;benefits are automatically enrolled in Medicaid. All others who wish to apply must&nbsp;meet the program’s financial requirements that stipulate: <ul>
<li>No more than $2,313 in monthly income per person</li>
<li>A maximum of $4,000 in assets per individual</li>
<li>A total combined asset limit of $8,000 per couple if both spouses are applying</li>
</ul> Mississippi Medicaid considers applicants’ income from all sources when determining eligibility. While most assets count toward the limit, several are disregarded, including: <ul>
<li>Personal belongings</li>
<li>Whole life insurance policies valued up to $10,000</li>
<li>Two vehicles</li>
<li>Up to $6,000 in burial funds</li>
<li>A primary home worth up to $585,000</li>
<li>Household&nbsp;effects</li>
</ul> If only one person in a married&nbsp;couple&nbsp;applies, the applicant is allowed the&nbsp;individual qualifying&nbsp;amounts of monthly income and assets. If the individual is over either limit, they may qualify for coverage once Medicaid-mandated spousal needs and resource allowances are deducted. These allowances let an applicant transfer up to $3,160.50 in monthly income and $126,420 in joint assets to the non-applicant to help prevent <a href="https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/eligibility/spousal-impoverishment/index.html" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.medicaid.gov/medicaid/eligibility/spousal-impoverishment/index.html" rel="noopener noreferrer">spousal impoverishment</a>.

Mississippi Assisted Living Waiver Nursing home care is the only long-term care entitlement under the Mississippi Medicaid program. However, the state does offer an alternative to institutional care through its&nbsp;<a href="https://medicaid.ms.gov/programs/assisted-living-waiver/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://medicaid.ms.gov/programs/assisted-living-waiver/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Assisted Living waiver</a>. This program covers the cost of care services in personal care homes and assisted living, community residential care and congregate housing facilities. Those who enroll have to pay for their own room and board, but the waiver covers case management and various supportive services, such as: <ul>
<li>Assistance with personal care&nbsp;</li>
<li>Recreational, social and therapeutic programs</li>
<li>Medication supervision and administration</li>
<li>Intermittent skilled nursing services</li>
<li>Nonmedical transportation</li>
<li>Attendant call systems</li>
</ul> Seniors may qualify for the AL waiver program if they meet the regular Medicaid eligibility guidelines and are assessed as needing a nursing home level of care but are physically and cognitively capable of living&nbsp;in the community. For more information about the Assisted Living waiver or to apply, Biloxi seniors can contact the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mdrs.ms.gov/Pages/default.aspx" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.mdrs.ms.gov/Pages/default.aspx" rel="noopener noreferrer">Department of Rehabilitation Services</a>&nbsp;at (800) 443-1000.
