Medicaid Application Pa 600L Form PDF Details

Navigating the complexities of applying for Medical Assistance (Medicaid) for long-term care, supports, and services can be daunting, but understanding the PA 600L form is a vital first step. This form serves as the financial eligibility application for individuals seeking aid for care in a facility, home and community waiver services, among other supports. Interested applicants have the option to submit their application online or directly to their county assistance office, where additional aid in completing the form is available. It is essential that applicants or their representatives—their spouse, a friend, a relative, someone with power of attorney, or a medical provider—fill out the form comprehensively, ensuring that all relevant income and resource information is accurately reported. This information is crucial, especially considering that any asset transactions within the last 60 months may impact eligibility. The form requires detailed personal, financial, and insurance information, and applicants must disclose whether they have received long-term care or have unpaid medical bills, which could influence their application. Additionally, the provision of social security numbers allows the state to verify asset information. Once submitted, the county assistance office reviews the application, with a commitment to respond within 30 days regarding eligibility or the need for further documentation.

*Please read the entire application form

*Print the requested information in the unshaded sections

*If you need help, another person can help you or you can get help from your county assistance office

You or any representative you choose may complete this application. Your representative can be your spouse, a friend, a relative, a person who has your power of attorney, or your medical provider. It should be someone who knows and can provide information about your income and resources. If you are married, information in some sections must be completed for both you and your spouse.

After the form is completed, bring it, have someone else bring it, or mail it to the county assistance office unless you are instructed otherwise. The county assistance office will tell you if a face to face interview is needed. You will need proof of identity and verification for other information on the form unless we already have

the information in our records. If you need help to obtain any information ask the county assistance office for help. You should attach verification to this form.

Persons who have given away assets (income or resources) within the past 60 months, or set up or transferred assets to a trust within the past 60 months prior to applying for Medical Assistance for long term care, supports and services may be ineligible for benefits. Because of this requirement, you may need to provide verification of assets owned during the past 60 months even though you may no longer own them. We will use your Social Security Number to get information about your assets for the 60 months prior to your application.

If the information is complete and you have provided the necessary verification (with this form, if possible), the county assistance office will notify you within

30 days of receiving your application if you are eligible, ineligible or if additional information is needed.
