What State for Medicaid?

Stuck in the middle

Many posters have reported difficulty obtaining State assistance, and niggardly support at best.  Is there a source of information rating States in that regard?

Stuck I just read an article about where you live, they just started expanding medicaid in 2020. I have family in NH and MA. They tell me that its the best, you just can't afford to live there. I live in Tennessee and it has not expanded medicaid. They have come up with Tennessee choice's program. It has the same income type of income limits and qualifications.  I have not had any health insurance in 15 yrs, my dw has medicare and a medigap plan. We have used the fast pace clinics here for most of our minor stuff. It's not minor any more. I just got my red white and blue and its active starting today. I will continue to trust God for everything,  Hope you get the things you need

 according to Wallet hub these are the worst states to live in for Medicaid (not specifically for the elderly and dementia but it gives an idea)

Thank you for the information.

I am not surprised to see Missouri is on the list.  It took a State referendum to expand Medicaid in 2020, because our legislature is rural dominated and is against it.  The winning argument was to keep small town hospitals open.

Part of the majority party's agenda in the coming legislative session is to revoke the Medicaid expansion.

I'm not going anywhere this year but the deaths of my mother and father-in-law have ended my primary reason for living here.  It is not too soon to start researching options for when my wife is no longer aware that she is or is not living in the house she loves.
