Please help - I have a 24 y.o. daughter who lives with me and will soon be dropped from my insurance at work - She is severely bipolar - in and out of hospitals since age 17 and has never been able to hold a job for more than a month. Her meds, which she desperately needs, are outrageously expensive. Will they count my income when trying to determine if she will be eligible for Medicaid when my insurance drops her? We are in Maryland and Bipolar is on the approved list.

Thsnks!
