SSI and Medicaid Coverage

​Section 1619(b) is a provision that allows individuals who are eligible for SSI to continue to be eligible for Medicaid coverage when their earnings are too high to continue to receive SSI. This work incentive only applies to individuals whose earnings are below an annual income threshold, as established by Social Security.
