Question about Medicaid

[Guest guest]

When does it start?

Lonnie is now two years out (transplant was 6/2/04). Does Medicaid

kick in two years after surgery, two years after qualifying for SSI or

two years after receiving our first disability check? We've heard

them all.

Who " enforces " it? He's talked with his Business Agent (he's in a

Union) and his recommendation is to keep his Union insurance in case

he wants/is able to come back to work.

Thanks for clearing this up for us.
