Resource Abstract:
description: <p>According to findings reported in, The Medicaid Medically Improved Group, Losing Disability Status and Growing Earnings, published in Volume 4, Issue 1 of the Medicare and Medicaid Research Review, participants in the medically improved group option of Medicaid Buy-in programs for working adults with disabilities moved off Social Security cash assistance rolls, or were diverted from them, and increased their earnings nearly 200 dollars per month. The Ticket to Work and Work Incentives Improvement Act gives states the choice to extend Medicaid Buy-In coverage to a medically improved group, but evidence of participants employment results has been lacking. This study shows that enrollment has been limited, with 233 participants in 2009. However, participation has doubled annually, on average, with a low drop out or churn rate. Participants earnings grew significantly, with mean earnings in 2009 at 52 percent above the federal poverty level.</p>; abstract: <p>According to findings reported in, The Medicaid Medically Improved Group, Losing Disability Status and Growing Earnings, published in Volume 4, Issue 1 of the Medicare and Medicaid Research Review, participants in the medically improved group option of Medicaid Buy-in programs for working adults with disabilities moved off Social Security cash assistance rolls, or were diverted from them, and increased their earnings nearly 200 dollars per month.
