People With Disabilities Who Work Can Get Health Coverage

These rules mean your child can get health coverage while making money at work:

• If your child gets Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits while working, Medicaid will continue automatically.
• If your child used to get SSI benefits, but now makes enough money that SSI benefits ended, SSI's 1619(b) rule means Medicaid will continue automatically even if your child makes up to $38,308 per year.
• If a child's income is even higher than that, they can get private health coverage through work or on Georgia Access. Private insurance companies cannot deny coverage to your child.
