Questions families ask

What's the difference between Texas's Medicaid expansion and Medicaid for seniors?

Texas has not expanded Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, but that decision has no bearing on long-term-care Medicaid for seniors, which is a completely separate, decades-old eligibility pathway for people who are 65 or older, or blind or disabled.

How does a Fort Worth family apply for the STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver?

Apply through Your Texas Benefits online, or call Texas 2-1-1 and ask for the aging and disability services option. A Texas HHSC caseworker will complete a nursing-facility level-of-care assessment as part of determining eligibility.

What are Texas's nursing facility Medicaid income and asset limits in 2026?

For 2026, the special income limit for Texas nursing facility Medicaid is $2,901/month, with a $2,000 asset limit for a single applicant. Income above the limit generally requires a Miller Trust (Qualified Income Trust) to still qualify.
