来看看你最崇拜的chatgpt是怎么说的,meidcaid怎么可能让你有12m存款还能qualify, 你把美国政府当sb了么, 除了加州这种诈骗大洲,全部都要查asset
Here’s a breakdown:
- Federal Baseline Rules
Medicaid is a means-tested program: both income and assets are reviewed.
Countable asset limits:
Single applicant (most states): $2,000
Married couple (both applying): $3,000
Exempt assets (not counted):
Primary residence (up to a home equity limit, often $688,000–$1,033,000 depending on state)
One car
Personal belongings, household goods
Certain prepaid burial arrangements
- State Variations
While most states follow the $2,000 / $3,000 federal minimum, here’s how some differ:
Texas (and most southern states) – Strict: $2,000 for single, $3,000 for couple. Very limited allowances.
New York – More generous: in 2025, resource limit is $31,175 for a single applicant (going up each year as they transition to more income-based rules).
California – Since Jan 2024, no asset test for most Medicaid programs (Medi-Cal) except for long-term care. Only income matters now.
Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota – Have higher thresholds and more flexible “spousal impoverishment protections” (community spouse can keep more).
Alaska & Hawaii – Slightly higher asset limits due to cost of living adjustments.
- Long-Term Care Medicaid (Nursing Home / Waiver Programs)
Rules are tighter here because costs are high.
Still typically $2,000 limit for an individual in most states.
Spousal protections: “Community spouse” may keep between $30,828 and $154,140 (2024 figures, adjusted annually).
- Medicaid Planning
People sometimes “spend down” assets to qualify (pay debts, home improvements, medical needs).
Look-back period: States review asset transfers 5 years back (2.5 years in California for some programs). If you gave away assets to qualify, Medicaid imposes a penalty period of ineligibility.
Summary Table (2025 Snapshot):
State Individual Asset Limit Couple Asset Limit Notes
Texas $2,000 $3,000 Strict
California No limit No limit Except long-term care
New York $31,175 $42,312 Rising annually
Florida $2,000 $3,000 Similar to Texas
Illinois $2,000 $3,000 Standard
Massachusetts $2,000 $3,000 But generous spousal rules
Connecticut $1,600 $3,200 One of the lowest
Alaska $3,000 $4,500 Higher for cost of livi

medicaid不同州可能有不同方法吧。我是看chatgpt说的。

但不管如何,有ACA不看asset就够了。12米很多现在还动不了,要是ACA没几个钱干嘛不买?
