I also have the same question. I would appreciate if anybody who was in the same boat share the experience. Thanks

If I were you, I would answer "yes" and explain the details in a separate page. The reason I am recommending you to answer "yes" is that it shouldn't make you ineligible to apply for GC. If you had applied for food stamp or similar, then that would be a separate story. On the other hand, if you answer "no" and if an immigration officer thinks you answered untruthfully, you might run into problems. If you have some sort of documents about that medical assistance, attach them as well with your I-485 application. Disclaimer: I amn't a lawyer, and please take this suggestion with grain of salt, of course.

Please go to social security administration's website and create a free account (register). Then you can run a check to see if the service you received in the past qualifies as a "public assistance". If you come clean, you should be good to go. Hope it helps !!!
