  • Title: Medicaid program; eligibility and coverage requirements--HCFA. Final rule with comment period.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1993 Jan 19; 58(11):4908-39. PubMed ID: 10171355.
    Abstract:
    These regulations amend the requirements for coverage of certain groups of individuals under Medicaid and the requirements for determining Medicaid eligibility. The regulations relate to coverage of individuals in optional categorically needy groups; aged, blind and disabled individuals in States that use more restrictive requirements for Medicaid than those under the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program; individuals receiving optional State supplementary payments; individuals under age 21 who are not receiving AFDC; individuals who are ineligible for cash assistance under the Social Security Act because of requirements that do not apply under Medicaid; and medically needy groups. In addition, the regulations revise the methodologies for determining income and resource eligibility under Medicaid, including financial responsibility of relatives, and for determining financial eligibility of medically needy groups, including determining medically needy income levels. These regulations interpret provisions of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, as amended by several acts, including, most recently, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987, the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988, the Family Support Act of 1988, the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989, and the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990. We are also making some administrative changes to achieve more efficient operation of the Medicaid Program.
