Do college student need to pay for healthcare, or is it provided by the government/college?

By    03:31 // No comments

I’ve been having difficulties finding an answer online, as all my search results are generated for international students instead of US residents (im in the UK). Do you guys get healthcare for free when you are a student or do you continue to rely on your family’s healthcare plan? what if someone does not have one, be it they’re older or an orphan?

Can you qualify for Medicaid if you live in your car and have no home address?

I’m 19 and I’m pretty sure I need to leave the room I’m staying in. I’ve been on my own since I turned 16 and I’m on Medicaid now. I have a plan to live in my car as a last case scenario but will I qualify for Medicaid?

Universal Healthcare could help with anti vaccine sentiments during future pandemics

A huge chunk of the US population has no health insurance or has a deductible so high that they can't afford to use their health insurance. Our medical system doesn't support everyone. The upper middle class doesn't understand this because they don't see it. They have great health insurance. Their family, friends, coworkers and neighbors have great health insurance. Our society deems their health and well being important and in turn, they trust doctors. The working class doesn't get this same treatment. Society has deemed them disposable. They might not be able to articulate this but they feel it. People who haven't been able to see a doctor when they needed one have lost trust. I've been vaccinated, but I understand when I see the people around me unsure. I hope one day everyone in this country is afforded the basic human decency of medical care. Our country can afford it if we care to. And I hope it happens before we meet a pandemic more deadly than covid.

I didn’t inform Medicaid about my change of income. What will happen?

By    00:31 // No comments

Hello all, Starting back in 2020, I started receiving Pandemic unemployment assistance(PUA) money which is unemployment insurance. I was receiving about $1800 a month which would put me above the income limit for me to be eligible for Medicaid for my state (I’m in California). The unemployment money stopped coming in September of 2021. I did not inform Medicaid of the change in income and I recently found out that you need to.

I’ve had Medicaid for as long as I can remember because my parents signed me up a long time ago. With this being said, I had no idea how Medicaid worked or that you even needed to tell them of changes in income. No one ever told me how it worked and I assumed that my parents would’ve told me about the income limit. When I signed up for PUA, Medicaid was nowhere in my mind as I didn’t think it related in anyway. It was an honest mistake and I’m very new to all of this.

What will happen when I inform Medicaid of the income I was receiving and that I was making more than the limit? Will they ask for money back or charge me with fraud and try and send me to jail?

I did look at a website that said this: “Medicaid: As a condition of receiving increased federal Medicaid funds, states must keep Medicaid enrollees covered through the end of the public health emergency, so Medicaid enrollees who begin receiving UI must not lose Medicaid coverage.”

If this is true then maybe it will help me out? Thanks for any advice and info.
