Who Is Eligible for Medicaid?Many groups of people are covered by Medicaid. Even within these groups, though, certain requirements must be met. These may include your age, whether you are pregnant, disabled, blind, or aged; your income and resources (like bank accounts, real property, or other items that can be sold for cash); and whether you are a U.S. citizen or a lawfully admitted immigrant. The rules for counting your income and resources vary from state to state and from group to group. There are special rules for those who live in nursing homes and for disabled children living at home.
Your child may be eligible for coverage if he or she is a U.S. citizen or a lawfully admitted immigrant, even if you are not (however, there is a 5-year limit that applies to lawful permanent residents). Eligibility for children is based on the child's status, not the parent's. Also, if someone else's child lives with you, the child may be eligible even if you are not because your income and resources will not count for the child.
In general, you should apply for Medicaid if your income is low and you match one of the descriptions below. (Even if you are not sure whether you qualify, if you or someone in your family needs health care, you should apply for Medicaid and have a qualified caseworker in your state evaluate your situation.)
Pregnant Women
Apply for Medicaid if you think you are pregnant. You may be eligible if you are married or single. If you are on Medicaid when your child is born, both you and your child will be covered.Children and Teenagers
Apply for Medicaid if you are the parent or guardian of a child who is 18 years old or younger and your family's income is low, or if your child is sick enough to need nursing home care, but could stay home with good quality care at home. If you are a teenager living on your own, the state may allow you to apply for Medicaid on your own behalf or any adult may apply for you. Many states also cover children up to age 21.Person who is Aged, Blind, and/or Disabled
Apply if you are aged (65 years old or older), blind, or disabled and have low income and few resources. Apply if you are terminally ill and want to receive hospice services. Apply if you are aged, blind, or disabled; live in a nursing home; and have low income and limited resources. Apply if you are aged, blind, or disabled and need nursing home care, but can stay at home with special community care services. Apply if you are eligible for Medicare and have low income and limited resources.Some Other Situations
Apply if you are leaving welfare and need health coverage. Apply if you are a family with children under 18 and have very low income and few resources. (You do not need to be receiving a welfare check.) Apply if you have very high medical bills, which you cannot pay (and you are pregnant, under 18 or over 65, blind, or disabled).Miami-Dade General Office : 8355 NW 53rd St. Koger Center, 2nd Floor, Manchester Bldg.

L’ennemi de votre santé dentaire
La plaque est le plus grand ennemi de votre santé dentaire. Pellicule invisible et collante qui se dépose continuellement sur l’émail des dents, la plaque décompose les sucres et amidons retrouvés dans les aliments et produit des acides qui pénètrent la surface des dents causant ainsi des caries (décalcification). La plaque produit également des toxines qui irritent les gencives et entraînent la gingivite. Cette maladie précoce et réversible provoque rougeurs , inflammation, et saignements des gencives.
Si la plaque n’est pas enlevée à intervalles réguliers, elle peut durcir et former du tartre (calculs). La gingivite se transforme ainsi en une grave affection que l’on appelle la périodondite. Seul votre spécialiste en médecine dentaire peut dégager le tartre de vos dents. La tartre qui n’est adéquatement enlevé s’accumule au-dessus et au dessous de la limite gingivale provoquant l’inflammation des tissus qui commencent à s’éloigner des dents pour former des (poches). Si elles atteignent cette phase évolutive, vos gencives seront plus facilement sujettes aux infections, à la décalcification et à la possibilité de perte de dents.
Vous pouvez prévenir la carie dentaire et les maladies de gencives. Grâce aux simples étapes suivantes, vous pouvez apprendre à conserver vos dents toute une vie Durant. 1) Brossez-vous les dents deux fois par jour. 2) Servez-vous de fil dentaire une fois par jour. 3) Nettoyez vos appareils dentaires avec des instruments spécialisés. 4) Utilisez les produits des soins dentaires. ref.
