🌟 Friday Fact: Working Does NOT Always Mean Losing Medicaid 💼

Did you know… you can work and still keep your healthcare coverage?

If you receive SSI, there are built-in supports designed to help you work while protecting your benefits:

Getting started can include:
🔹 1619(a): Keep receiving an SSI check and Medicaid while your earnings gradually increase
🔹 1619(b): Continue Medicaid even if your SSI payment goes to $0, as long as you meet eligibility requirements
🔹 MAWD (PA): Work, earn more, and keep Medical Assistance by paying a small monthly premium

Why It Matters:
✔ Reduces fear of losing healthcare when starting work
✔ Supports financial growth and independence
✔ Encourages employment without sacrificing essential coverage

🎯 Big takeaway: With the right programs and guidance, you can work toward your goals without losing the healthcare you rely on.

enTRUST Services, LLC provides person-centered Benefits Counseling to help individuals with disabilities increase employment and financial independence while protecting healthcare coverage.

We had a great time connecting at the Transition Fair at The Watson Institute’s South Fayette Education Center!

Our team enjoyed talking with with families, caregivers, and dedicated professionals who are committed to supporting people with disabilities. Events like this are so important for sharing valuable information and helping people better understand the supports available to them.

We had meaningful conversations with families who were unaware of resources like representative payee services, benefits counseling, special needs pooled trusts, and assistance with Medical Assistance renewals—and many were thrilled to learn help is available through enTRUST.

Opportunities like this continue to inspire our passion for this work and reinforce the importance of building connections and increasing awareness in our community. 💙

✨ Restoring Access to Care: Anthony's Journey with enTRUST ✨

Anthony's access to critical Medical Assistance benefits was unexpectedly terminated due to incomplete documentation, creating an urgent and stressful situation. At the center of the issue was a life insurance policy that remained in his deceased mother’s name but was mistakenly counted as an available resource.

enTRUST Services quickly stepped in to investigate and advocate. After identifying the root of the problem, their team worked directly with County Assistance to clarify the reason for the closure and determine exactly what documentation was needed to resolve it.

One of the biggest hurdles was proving that ownership of the life insurance policy had never been transferred to Anthony. enTRUST coordinated closely with the insurance company to obtain the necessary paperwork, assist with completing documentation, and ensure everything was submitted accurately and efficiently.

At the same time, enTRUST filed an appeal and maintained consistent communication with both the insurance company and the assigned caseworker—tracking progress, confirming receipt of documents, and preventing delays.

Once the policy transfer was finalized and proper verification was secured, enTRUST promptly submitted the updated information and followed up directly. Their persistence paid off: Anthony's Medical Assistance benefits were reinstated retroactively, restoring access to essential healthcare coverage and supports.

Today, this outcome stands as a powerful example of enTRUST’s commitment to advocacy, collaboration, and navigating complex systems to ensure people receive the benefits they depend on.

enTRUST was proud to be part of the South Hill Futures Fair, connecting with families and transition‑age youth.

Benefits & Financial Specialists Tamika Fields and Jay Smith represented enTRUST at the event. They had meaningful conversations with attendees, and shared important information with them about resources including benefits counseling, Medicaid renewals, and continuing benefits after the age of 18.

"The event reinforced the importance of early engagement with youth and families. It increased my awareness of the barriers many people face, particularly the lack of clear information around Social Security benefits, noted Jay.

"There is a lack of information surrounding social security and that has deterred people from really seeking benefits," said Tamika. "I know that enTrust can bring forth awareness and educate more people about obtaining and maintaining benefits while working and earning."

enTRUST representatives look forward to continuing the discussion at the Disability & Mental Health Summit at CCAC on May 7!
