Title: Clarifying Eligibility for a Qualified Health Plan Through an Exchange, Advance Payments of the Premium Tax Credit, Cost-sharing Reductions, A Basic Health Program and Medicaid and CHIP (CMS-9894) 
Abstract:

This final rule makes several clarifications and updates to the definitions currently used to determine whether a consumer is eligible to enroll in a Qualified Health Plan (QHP) through an Exchange; a Basic Health Program (BHP), in States that elect to operate a BHP; and for some State Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Programs (CHIP). This rule modifies the definition of lawfully present to include Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) recipients, and makes additional technical modifications to the definition.
