[QUOTE="mom_in_training, post: 171406, member: 2727"] I know you cannot win when it comes to the eligibility requirements. I recently discovered exactly why many disabled and elderly adults go without their medications etc... The maintenance fee that Social Security allows for an individual is only a whopping $600.00. Its like hellooooooo it surely takes more then that for an individual to survive. But this would be the amount + $20.00 this ($620.00) they will deduct from a persons income and if they still are over the the qualifying $ amount allowed then the difference would be their share of cost otherwise known as a spendown.. My son did not qualify for SS or Medi-caid and has a share of cost of $1100.00 per month. Big Yikes!!!!!! Are you applying for Medi-Cal or SSI for your difficult child? If so just FYI they use the SS $ criteria for eligibility. You might be able to qualify with a share of cost. [/QUOTE]
