Who is eligible for Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act?

As of Jan. 1, 2014, Americans under 65 who earn less than $14,000 for an individual and $29,000 for a family of four will be eligible to enroll in Medicaid. States will receive 100-percent federal funding for the first three years to support this expanded coverage, phasing to 90-percent federal funding in subsequent years.
