FWIW, state implementations of Medicare are a dicey proposition these days, but I know Maine's has a provision in it that makes people with disabling conditions eligible when they otherwise wouldn't be. Your state might have a similar thing, buried somewhere in the bureaucracy. Could be worth checking out.
