To qualify for Title 19 Medical Assistance you hold to be PERMANENTLY Disabled,-not CURRENTLY Disabled, right?

I was told you had to be any pregnant, a child, or disabled to qualify. They mean PERMANENTLY disabled for life, not set hindmost 3-4 months disabled with a broken tibia & fibula, on crutches...is that correct? I have search online and cannot find anything. This would be for the State of Iowa. Thanks!
contained by order to get S.S. it channel that you cant work again because of a disability. not because your currently disabled.
i know someone who collects S.S. because he had lung cancer and cant work.
The doctors and nurses don't treaty with disability much at all. And yes, it have to be a permanent disability, not a broken leg or something that will get better.

Answers:    It looks like if you meet a indubitable limitation on income level consequently you would qualify. (See listing below)

They mean for good disabled. If you have a broken leg and are out of work, then any the employer could pay you using your accumulated medical give up or perhaps you could apply for unemployment if you check out of the job.
