Summary:

Describes relevant Medicaid and health insurance exchange provisions in P.L. 111-148, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), as amended, that rely on modified adjusted gross income (MAGI). Discusses Medicaid eligibility, premium credits, and definition of income under PPACA; and provides illustrative examples of what composition of social security and non-social security income would qualify early retirees for Medicaid and premium credits under the MAGI definition of income. Examines issues for Congress in considering changes to the definition of income for Medicaid eligibility and premium credits in health insurance exchanges.
