Florida Medicaid

Medicaid is a government-sponsored health insurance program that provides dental coverage for eligible low-income families and individuals. In Florida, Medicaid dental coverage includes a range of services such as cleanings, fillings, extractions, and dentures. Medicaid also covers dental services for children, including orthodontic treatment.

Eligibility for Medicaid is based on income and other factors, such as citizenship and residency status. To qualify for Medicaid coverage in Florida, you must meet the following requirements:

Income: Your income must be at or below 138% of the federal poverty level (FPL). The FPL changes each year, so it's important to check the current income guidelines.
Citizenship and Residency: You must be a U.S. citizen, U.S. national, or have satisfactory immigration status. You must also be a resident of the state of Florida.
Age and Disability: Children, pregnant women, and adults aged 65 and over may be eligible for Medicaid coverage. In addition, individuals who are disabled or who require long-term care may also be eligible for Medicaid coverage.
Other Factors: Other factors that may impact Medicaid eligibility include household size, marital status and whether you have any dependents.

It's important to note that there are certain exemptions and exceptions to the eligibility requirements. For example, children under the age of 19 may be eligible for Medicaid coverage regardless of their family's income level. Additionally, individuals who have certain medical conditions or who require certain types of medical care may be eligible for Medicaid coverage even if they don't meet the income requirements.

For those seeking additional resources and information about dental coverage in Florida, there are a variety of options available. The Florida Department of Children and Families provides information about Medicaid eligibility and dental coverage, as well as resources for applying for Medicaid coverage. The Florida Dental Association also provides information and resources for individuals seeking dental care in Florida.
