Don't believe the free part. Medicaid recipients get cell phones with only a limited number of minutes per month. Some allow texting. That's it. If you have internet data usage, it can get very expensive.
I see on your profile that your husband lives in Independent Living, is that correct? Chances are he wouldn't qualify for the government free telephone [which was started by President Ronald Reagan]. One would need to qualify, thus be low income.
With Independent Living, usually the facility will let a resident borrow one of their landline telephones for their apartment, or you can go to Target and get a landline phone which is inexpensive. If not, usually in the lobby is a telephone that the resident can use.
