Florida Medicaid resources

Medicaid reference numbers, forms, and educational content

These are the reference pages behind a Florida long-term care Medicaid application: the figures Florida applies this year, the words a caseworker uses, the mistakes that get applications denied, the state forms the application needs, and what each kind of care costs and how Medicaid treats it. The figures table below is updated when the Department of Children and Families or the federal government publishes new numbers, usually in January and July.

If you are just starting, read the Florida Medicaid guides first; they explain the rules in order. Come here when you need a definition, a form, or a number.
