In Nevada, where applying and qualifying for Medicaid can be challenging, we are providing some tools to assist you. 

Medicaid: Eligibility and Access

Medicaid eligibility in Nevada is primarily based on income and household size. To assist you with determining which website is the most beneficial for you to apply for assistance, Access Nevada has a Pre-Screening tool to help. This tool gathers basic information and provides recommendations on which website to submit your medical assistance application.

Covered Services

Medicaid in Nevada covers a plethora of services, including doctor visits, hospital stays, prescription drugs, preventive care, mental health services, and more. This comprehensive coverage can significantly alleviate the financial burden on both guardians and the person in need of care.

Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS)

Recognizing the importance of allowing individuals to receive care within their homes and communities, Nevada Medicaid offers HCBS waivers. This means that eligible individuals can receive services such as personal care assistance, respite care, and adult day health services while staying in familiar environments, promoting their overall well-being.
