[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My autistic sibling who can't work is on Medicaid and so I'm very worried about that. [/quote]
How does this bill define disability  and who has to work to receive $$? I work in a field that assists many disabled adults in group homes. Medicaid and SSi pays for a lot of this- aides, specialty  medical items, and health  care. No, they cannot go to work. Many are developmentally and cognitively impaired in so many ways. They are 21 to age 75. What will happen  to them?[/quote]

Nearest living relative will be forced to care for them. [/quote]

this is the definition of someone not able to work – why are you saying family would have to care for them as opposed to the group homes?[/quote]

Who is going to pay for the nursing home fees? It falls on the family. 
Filial responsibility law in most states. Has not been commonly enforced, but without Medicaid coverage this will become enforced more often. [/quote]

but that disabled person is not moving losing their coverage. [/quote]
