Q. Can I use my Medicaid coverage in any state? A: No. Because each state has its own Medicaid eligibility requirements, you can’t just transfer coverage from one state to another, nor can you use your Medicaid coverage when you’re temporarily visiting another state, unless you need emergency health care.
While Medicaid is often thought of as a federal program, each state is given the flexibility to set their own eligibility requirements. Therefore, each state evaluates its applicants independently from each other state. Those wishing to transfer their coverage must re-apply for Medicaid in the new state.
One cannot transfer their Medicaid benefits from one state to another state, nor can they receive Medicaid benefits simultaneously in two states. Instead, one must close their Medicaid case, and hence their benefits, in their original state, and then reapply for Medicaid in the state in which they are relocating.Feb 1, 2024
