How do I get my brother on Medicaid?

Wasn't this question dealt with on another thread? Go back and look up the answers you got the first time.

I would do taxes for 2013 for him at your address. You know AARP in many cities has free tax filing for the elderly or disabled that AARP does in conjunction with the IRS, I think it;s called the VITA program. In my area it is done at the libraries, in my mom's city it is done at the shopping malls or Goodwill training center sites or at Oasis sites. You will need to have the letter sent out in January from SSA that shows his 2013 benefits. This is FORM SSA-1099 SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFIT STATEMENT (Form SSA-1099-SM). It's a 8 X 4 1/2 trifold document - the kind that has an edge you tear off on either side. Not a traditional envelope.

Now in the form on box 7 it will show his name & address that SSA had as of Sept 2013. So keep that in mind when SSA on-line asks for his address. Box 8 will have the claim number, so if it somehow is tied to your dad's SS then it will have dad's number and a letter afterwards (usually an "A") so if you enter bro's SS & it doesn't work try dad's SS #.

Now you can go on-line to SSA to get this and believe me right now there are lots of people going on-line to get it as they can't find the copy mailed in January and taxes are due next week! keep in mind that SSA is pretty sticky to deal with in person - sounds like you have encountered all that. Whatever you do on-line you do it as your brother and all on his behalf.

About the ID, see if you can get some mail sent to bro at your address and things that look more "official" so you can bring these along to get an photo ID from DPS. Most places want a utility bill type of thing, so what to do? You could call the local cable company and ask about what plans they have and can they mail you some information. You do this as your brother so he is getting the mail from Time Warner
Cable whatever. Presto! brother now has a "presence" at your address.

Also you can get him a magazine subscription. ANother item to show his address

Perchance is there an ARC program in your area? If so they seem to have lots of volunteers & volunteer families to help those who now suddenly find themselves dealing with a disabled family member. their day programs are pretty terrific and they do get "paid" for their work so it will establish more paperwork for your bro.
Good luck, none of this is easy but it is wonderful you are there for him.

There are Medicare/Medicaid lawyers that can get this done for you. OR Get his MA records from Mass Health and his doctors. Get him a non-driver's ID from NH DMV, showing the new address. Establish a NH bank account for his direct deposit. Get a replacement SS card from ssa.gov and the award letter. Contact VESID if he is employable in a sheltered workshop. Go to NH website for disabled at www.dhhs.nh.gov for info.
