Eligible individuals may be those age 65 and over, the blind, or the disabled. Once financially eligible Medicaid will pay for your nursing home care at a facility that accepts Medicaid. Your income may be utilized as your portion of the monthly payments and Medicaid will pay the balance. This is dependent on if there is a spouse at home and the level of their income and current housing costs.
