This rule would propose to implement provisions of the statute pertaining to post-eligibility treatment of income for beneficiaries receiving long-term services and support to incorporate provisions of law that have not been previously codified, including application of post-eligibility treatment of income rules to beneficiaries determined eligible on the basis of Modified Adjusted Gross Income (MAGI). The rule would also make technical changes to clarify certain provisions related to Medicaid eligibility, appeals, premiums and cost-sharing, premium assistance, and certain Children’s Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2009 (CHIPRA) provisions. The rule also would propose to update the regulations providing for Medicaid eligibility, to incorporate changes effective as a result of the Affordable Care Act and the CHIPRA. In addition, the rule proposes changes to provide states more flexibility to coordinate Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) eligibility notices, appeals, and other related administrative procedures with similar procedures used by other health coverage programs authorized under the Affordable Care Act.
