Where do I start the process of applying for Medicaid for my 94-year-old sister?

I need help to apply for Medicaid for my sister.

Call your County Social Service office and see if you can make an appt with a caseworker. Ask what info you need to bring along. If sister has no assets, she is spent down to the asset cap allowed, and monthly income is not over the income cap allowed, the application should be pretty easy. The caseworker for my Mom did it all for me. I just had to supply info needed.

Do an online search like this:

(your state)+"Dept of health and human services"+"medicaid application"

It should take you near or to a page that will take you to the downloadable app and give specific instructions on how to fill out the form and where to get help filling out the form.

Medicaid is run individually by each state so your state's rules and qualifications may differ from other states.
