Does anyone know if I can stay on Maryland Medical Assistance (Medicaid) instead of going on Medicare?

You'll have to research your particular state. Many states allow you to have both. Medicare Part A is only hospitalization, anyway. Some states will pay for your Part B and even supplemental insurance. Your rates will increase later if you don't opt to pick them up at time of eligibility.
