1 min read

Medicaid for Employed Adults with Disabilities (MEAD) and Medicaid for Employed Older Adults with Disabilities (MOAD) both provide Medicaid coverage to adults who have disabilities and are working.

MEAD can help you if you work and are 18 to 64 years of age. MOAD can help you if you work and are 65 years of age or older.

Both programs have higher income and resource limits than other Medicaid programs. Some individuals who are eligible for MEAD may be required to pay a health insurance premium.
