How much money can you make and still qualify for Medicaid in Florida ,as of January, 2021, the amount comes to $2,382. And this has to do with whenever you’re attempting to qualify for a skilled nursing care, or other Medicaid benefits. There’s a Florida house, a two-part test. And as far as qualifying, not only do you have to meet the income guidelines, you also have to meet the asset guidelines. And one of the big assets that is not considered in the Medicaid formula is your home. If you own a home, that’s not counted as an asset, as far as qualifying for Medicaid. If your income exceeds the $2,380, there is a what they call a Miller trust. It can be set up, so that, say your income is $3,000 and your nursing home bill is 8,000. You can set up a Miller trust and still qualify for Medicaid by having your income paid into the Miller trust and that thereby qualify.
