FAQ
Regardless of in whose name an asset is in, it is calculated towards the asset eligibility of the applicant spouse. Generally speaking, in 2025, the applicant asset limit for a senior is $2,000. Medicaid, however, allows a greater portion of the couple's assets to be protected for the non-applicant spouse.
The income limits based on household size are: One person: $17,609. Two people: $23,792. Three people: $29,974. Four people: $36,156. Five people: $42,339.
There are also many assets that are non-countable (exempt). Exemptions include personal belongings, household furnishings, an automobile, irrevocable burial trusts (up to $10,000 in GA), and generally one's primary home. In Georgia, IRA's and 401K's of applicants are exempt if they are in “payout status”.
Georgia Pathways to Coverage™ The Georgia Pathways program offers Medicaid coverage to low-income Georgia residents who meet program requirements.
Gather What You'll Need A copy of your birth certificate or other proof of identity and citizenship or immigration status. Photo ID cards issued by federal, state, or local government agencies. Social Security number for each person applying.
The asset limit for a married applicant in most states is $3,000. Medicaid considers all assets of a married couple to be jointly owned. So, for a married couple with both spouses applying for Medicaid Long Term Care, all of their countable assets would be counted against their asset limit for both applicants.
Some income that Medicaid used to consider part of household income is no longer counted, such as child support received, veterans' benefits, workers' compensation, gifts and inheritances, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) and SSI payments.
