You do not need to have a medical condition to qualify. PAC does not cover inpatient or outpatient hospital services or specialty services.
Individual Maryland residents age 19 or over who do not qualify for full coverage through Medicaid or receive Medicare are eligible if their income does not exceed $1053 a month.
