i got $1100 a month on disability before my medicare kicked in. it kicks in 18 or 24 months after you get SSDI. when it did kick in i still get over 1000 plus medicare.

if your on SSI medicaid kicks in the first day your approved or around there but you get half the money. SSI is considered welfare so theres a set amount of money you get.

SSDI is disability. its based on how long youve worked so its in varying amounts you might get.

i hope all this is correct. i know most of what i said is.
