If you have a disability and are working, this program may provide you with health care benefits. In some situations, working and earning money could prevent you from getting help from public benefit programs, such as Medicaid. This program allows you to work and still keep your health care coverage. However, you may need to pay a premium, which is typically 5% of your countable monthly income.


How do I apply?

To apply for this program, you can use the online application or contact your local office and ask to speak to an enrollment specialist who works with the program. This individual can help you learn how to apply.
