Learning to calculate SSI/ Medicaid: Parents Workshop on

SSI and Medicaid on November 20...

One of the best ways to make sure you understand and manage your

child's eligibility for SSI and the Medicaid is to learn to

calculate your family's monthly deemed income and then your

child's eligibility for SSI on a monthly basis. There is way to

do that and its fairly easy ro do, but have to have someone teach

you to do this. Once you learn to do this calculation, you will

not be guessing about what your ongoing SSI/ Medicaid

eligibility.

One of the best ways to learn how to manage SSI and Medicaid

eligibility is invest a day of your time at the Parents Saturday

Workshop here in Austin on November 20. The workshop ÒAccessing

Social Security Disability Benefits to Provide Opportunities for

Self-Support for People with DisabilitiesÓ provides families

with a comprehensive consumer background on how the federal

disability benefit programs work (and don't work) and how to

access the programs; what the eligibility requirements are for

all the Social Security disability programs; how to calculate

eligibility; and how to make sure that you receive the full

amount of your SSI eligibility.

Otherwise you are just guessing and relying on somewhat incorrect

information on this and other forums to manage your kid's

Medicaid eligibility. In this day and age that can be dangerous
