Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Indiana Medicaid income limits for 2026?
In Indiana, Medicaid income limits are 138% FPL for adults (expansion state), 262% FPL for children, and 213% FPL for pregnant women. For a single adult, this means approximately $21,597/year.
Has Indiana expanded Medicaid?
Yes, Indiana has expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, covering adults up to 138% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). This means more low-income adults qualify for free or low-cost health coverage.
How do I apply for Medicaid in Indiana?
You can apply for Indiana Medicaid online at HealthCare.gov, by calling 1-800-318-2596, visiting your local Medicaid office, or mailing a paper application. Applications are accepted year-round.
What is MAGI and how does it affect Medicaid eligibility?
Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI) is the income methodology used for most Medicaid eligibility determinations. It includes taxable income, tax-exempt interest, and Social Security benefits. Deductions like student loan interest and IRA contributions are subtracted. A 5% income disregard is applied to the FPL threshold.
Can I have assets and still qualify for Indiana Medicaid?
For most MAGI-based Medicaid categories (adults, children, pregnant women), there is no asset test — only income matters. However, elderly and disabled applicants may face asset limits, typically $2,000 for individuals or $3,000 for couples, though some states have eliminated asset tests.
What is the Medicaid coverage gap in non-expansion states?
Since Indiana has expanded Medicaid, there is no coverage gap. All adults up to 138% FPL are covered.
