Medicaid is an income tested program.

Medicaid is a joint Federal and State program that provides payment for some medical costs for certain individuals who are older, have low incomes and limited assets, or are disabled. Coverage and eligibility vary from state to state, but most of your health care costs are covered if you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Medicaid recipients may also receive benefits such as nursing home care and outpatient prescription drugs.
