Hi Dana,
 
I know that SSI (Medicaid) is income dependent.  When I received my first SSDI check I was told I no longer qualified for SSI because my income was too high, and my only income at that point was only my SSDI check.  My income did exceed the eligibility levels through the past 25 some years, but today if I could get Social Security to NOT give me the cost-of-living raise for ONE year, I would qualify for SSI because my income (SSDI) would fall below the eligibility level.  That is why the Medicare Waiver was put into law, but the SSA didn't tell me about the Waiver, they left it up to me to discover it on my own.  As my Grandpa would have said, "That's a crazy way to run a railroad"! 
 
With Love,
