Medicaid
In PersonThere are several Medical Assistance Programs offered in Virginia. Each program covers different groups of people and each program has different eligibility requirements. When you apply for Medical Assistance, you are screened for all possible programs based on your age, income, financial resources, and other information. To be eligible for a Medical Assistance Program, you must meet the financial and non-financial eligibility conditions for that program.
Medicaid allows 45 days to determine an individual’s eligibility.
How will I know if I am eligible for assistance?
All of the benefit programs have specific income and resource limits. If you are under these limits, and have provided all of the requested information, your eligibility worker will notify you by mail as to whether or not you are eligible for assistance.
If you do not provide all of the requested information, your case will be denied for failure to provide information. You may reapply at any time.
