Medicaid is a federal block-grant program, which means that each state makes its own rules in how the money is used. Thus, medicaid eligibility can vary from state to state; you may or may not be eligible at all in your new state. The covered services can also vary.
Evey state's Medicaid rules and payout is different. Therefore, if you plan on moving, take the time to research your new state's Medicare requirements, as you may not qualify in a different state.
Every state has its own medicaid program. If change states, you will lose your current medicaid and have to re-apply in your new home, which may have different eligibility rules.
Medicaid is affected because once you move to another state you basically have to re-register since the medicaid that you had when you were living in your ex state is going to be cost different than the one you have in your new state.
You will need to file for Medicaid in the new state you are moving to. If it is a short distance across state lines, you can continue to use the doctors you were using.
If would have to reapply for medicaid if I move to a different state as I would lose medicaid from the state that I was in. I would not have any insurance during that process and the Medicaid eligibility rules are different for each state. Thus I may not be able to get Medicaid in the state I move to.
