Maryland ABLE is a savings program which seeks to encourage and assist individuals and families in saving private funds to support individuals with disabilities to maintain health, independence, and quality of life. ABLE accounts allow people with disabilities to save and invest money that is not counted towards asset limitations set by means-tested benefit programs such as Medicaid or SSI. “Asset limits” prevent people with disabilities from saving money beyond $2,000 (a typical asset limit) and planning for their future.
