Explanation of Solution

The purpose of Medicaid program is as follows:

The main purpose is to pay for the health care requirements of people and their families with low earnings and barely any assets. The amount of payments depends on the state's average per capita income comparable to average national income. Individuals applying for Medicaid assistances must meet least government necessities and any extra prerequisites of the state in which they live.

An individual qualified in one state might be denied coverage in another state. Medicaid coverage may start as right on time as the third month preceding application if the individual would have been qualified for Medicaid had the person applied during that time. Medicaid coverage usually halts toward the month's end in which an individual no longer meets the criteria of any Medicaid qualification.
