Three quick questions. Takes about a minute.

Using Florida Family-Related Medicaid income guidelines effective April 2026 through March 2027

Step 1 of 3: Who are you checking Medicaid income guidelines for?

Looking for Medicaid for someone who is 65 or older, has a disability, or needs long-term care? Different Medicaid financial rules may apply. Medicaid programs for people who are 65 or older or have a disability may use different income and asset requirements than Family-Related Medicaid, so this checker doesn't compare them.

Your Medicaid household size isn't always the same as the number of people living in your home.

Who counts in a Medicaid household?

Florida DCF looks at the person applying and their family and tax relationships. Depending on your situation, a Medicaid household may include:

  • the person applying
  • a spouse
  • the tax filer
  • tax dependents
  • parents
  • children
  • certain siblings

This checker doesn't work out your household size for you. It uses the number you enter and assumes it is correct. If you're not sure, our team can help.

Use the amount before taxes or anything else is taken out. If there's no income, enter 0.

How often do you receive this amount?

What this calculator checks

It compares your estimated monthly household income with the published Florida DCF Family-Related Medicaid monthly income guideline for the coverage group and household size you choose. If you're paid weekly, every two weeks, twice a month, or yearly, it first converts that amount to an estimated monthly figure and shows the math.

What it does not check

It does not fully determine Medicaid eligibility. Eligibility depends on more than income, and final decisions are made by the appropriate government agency. It also doesn't cover Medicaid for people who are 65 or older, have a disability, or need long-term care — those programs may use different income and asset requirements than Family-Related Medicaid.

Why age and coverage group matter

DCF publishes separate monthly income guidelines for babies under age 1, children age 1 to 5, children age 6 to 18, and pregnant women. Young adults age 19 and 20 share one guideline with parents and caregivers. The group you choose decides which guideline the checker uses. Checking for more than one person — for example, a parent and a child? Check each one separately.

What if my income is above the guideline?

Being above one published guideline does not automatically mean a person has no health coverage options. Different Medicaid categories and other health coverage programs can have different requirements, and household details can affect how income is counted.
