I am interested in who is eligible for this. Someone told me that I should check it out, because I no longer have health insurance, and have a few things that need to be fixed health wise. I am 21, a full time college student, and have no income. I currently live with my boyfriend, but we are not married, he makes almost 40 a year, but his 19 year old sister lives with us, along with his 76 year old father who is being put on medicaid. My financial aid and loans completely cover my school funds, because even with my dads income added in, it is not enough for school. He also does not have insurance because he can not afford it. My boyfriend has it through his work, but will they count his income too even though my permanant address is my dads? Please leave some info on this. I looked it up, but could not find much on eligibility for it. Thanks.

They will go by your dads income, not your bf's. Call the local social services center and talk with them. They will give you the criteria that must be met before you can sign up.

Full time university students are by definition not elgible for medicaid. Why don't you look into your college's health insurance? In my state, it is required for all full time students to have some kind of health insurance.
It is almost impossible for adults without children to get medicaid.
