Title: State Long-Term Care Partnership Program: State Reciprocity Standard 
Abstract: Under section 6021 of Public Law 109-171, the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA), States may provide asset disregards (and related estate recovery offsets) for Medicaid applicants who receive benefits under qualified long term care insurance policies (Partnership policies) that were purchased in the same State. This notice sets forth standards for states that choose to enter into a reciprocity agreement under section 6021(b) of the DRA, under which they agree to provide the same disregards and offsets for qualified Partnership policies that a Medicaid applicant purchased in another State that participates in the reciprocity agreement.
