I am the primary caregiver for my husband, therefore I have no income, can I qualify for any health care benefits?

EXPERT Carol Bradley Bursack, CDSGF Jul 2012
Are you old enough for Medicare? Do you qualify for Medicaid? Your husband's income is legally yours under Medicaid law, so much depends on his income. If you aren't old enough to quality for Medicare, check with your State Insurance Department. They may be able to get you into a state pool.
Good luck,
Carol
