Đây là gì
Public health insurance for low-income people, jointly funded by the federal and state governments. It covers doctor visits, hospital care, prescriptions, pregnancy, and children's care. States run it under federal rules, and each state has its own name and details (California calls it Medi-Cal).

- Pregnant women≤ 171% FPLKanCare's pregnancy line is about 171% FPL, covering through 12 months postpartum (some sources list up to ~200%; rely on KanCare for the current figure). 🔴 The immigration point: a lawfully residing pregnant woman in Kansas generally still faces the five-year bar (Kansas did not take the no-wait option), and an undocumented pregnant woman has only Emergency Medicaid at delivery, with no CHIP unborn-child/FCEP prenatal pathway (unlike Arkansas). Rely on KanCare for the current thresholds.

Quy định về tình trạng di trú tại tiểu bang này
🔴 Kansas is one of the states that has NOT expanded Medicaid (a sharp contrast with Arkansas's expansion, and like Mississippi a non-expansion state): there is no 'expansion population' pathway for low-income adults — a non-disabled adult with no minor children is generally not eligible for KanCare no matter how low their income (the 'coverage gap'). KanCare covers only the traditional categories: pregnant women, children, people 65+ or blind/disabled, and very-low-income parents/caretaker relatives. 🔴 The parent/caretaker income line is extremely low (around 38% of poverty, roughly $653/month for a single-parent household of three), and pregnant women about 171% FPL (12 months postpartum; rely on KanCare for the current percentage). 🔴🔴 Immigration status (understand this — Kansas is on the strict side): a qualified immigrant generally must meet the five-year bar and its exceptions (refugees/asylees are exempt); 🔴 Kansas did NOT take the CHIPRA 'lawfully residing children/pregnant women without a five-year wait' option (NASHP verbatim: lawfully residing children without the wait = No) — so lawfully residing immigrant children in Kansas generally still face the five-year wait (unlike Arkansas, which exempts children; do not carry Arkansas's approach to Kansas). Undocumented: generally only Emergency Medicaid (labor/delivery, emergencies); 🔴 Kansas has NOT adopted the CHIP unborn-child / FCEP prenatal option (Kansas is not among the states that adopted FCEP; KanCare standard Medicaid requires citizen or qualified status) — so an undocumented pregnant person's prenatal care is not covered by Medicaid/CHIP, only Emergency Medicaid at delivery (unlike Arkansas, which covers undocumented prenatal). 🔴🔴 Public charge: Medicaid is CONDITIONAL — routine Medicaid does NOT count in the current (2022) public charge test (getting ordinary medical care does not affect your green card); but government-funded LONG-TERM institutional care (e.g., long-term nursing-home care) can be considered. Minors, pregnant/postpartum, and Emergency Medicaid generally do not count. Because cases differ, consult an immigration attorney; this is a changing area — verify with KanCare / KDHE.

✅ Regular Medicaid does NOT count in the public charge test — receiving it does not affect your green card or immigration application.
⚠️ The one exception: Medicaid that pays for long-term institutional care (a long-term stay in a nursing facility or mental-health institution at government expense) DOES count. Everyday doctor visits, hospital care, prescriptions, and home- and community-based care are not this exception.
➕ Because the current rule excludes all non-institutional Medicaid, Medicaid for children, pregnancy, and emergencies also does not count. In mixed-status families, eligible citizen or qualified children can safely get the care they qualify for.
Public charge is assessed only for people applying for an immigrant visa abroad, or applying for adjustment of status (a green card) inside the United States.
Many categories are exempt by law: refugees, asylees, VAWA self-petitioners, T and U visa applicants, Temporary Protected Status (TPS), Special Immigrant Juveniles (SIJ), Cuban/Haitian entrants, and others.
Public charge is generally not assessed when a green-card holder renews their card or naturalizes; a returning green-card holder is assessed only in limited cases (for example, an absence of more than 180 days).
This is information only, not immigration, legal, or tax advice. Public charge and your personal status are complex — consult a licensed immigration attorney. We never tell you whether you "will" or "won't" be affected.
