  • Title: Medicaid program: redeterminations of Medicaid eligibility due to welfare reform--HCFA. Final rule with comment period.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1997 Jan 13; 62(8):1682-5. PubMed ID: 10172891.
    Abstract:
    The Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996 and the Contract with America Advancement Act of 1996 created changes in Federal law affecting the eligibility of large numbers of Medicaid recipients. These changes include revisions to the definition of disability for children and to the eligibility requirements of non-U.S. citizens and individuals receiving disability cash assistance based on a finding of alcoholism and drug addiction. This final rule with comment period protects Federal financial participation (FFP) in State Medicaid expenditures for states with unusual volumes of eligibility redeterminations caused by these recent changes in the law. We are making changes to the regulations to provide for additional time for States to process these redeterminations and provide services pending the redeterminations.
