Purpose and Reason:
The Executive Office of Health & Human Services (EOHHS) is filing this emergency amendment to the Medicaid Code of Administrative Rules, section #0370, "SSI-Related Coverage Groups", to reflect the cost-of-living increase to the federal Social Security Administration benefit rates, the medically needy income limits and the categorically needy net monthly income limits for aged, blind, or disabled individuals and couples. The State is adopting these amended rules to set forth these provisions in a timely manner in order to prevent wrongful denial, discontinuance, or interruption of benefits for Medicaid applicants and beneficiaries. These rules will be posted for public review and comment shortly.
Brief statement of Reason for Finding Imminent Peril:
The State is adopting these amended rules to set forth these provisions in a timely manner in order to prevent wrongful denial, discontinuance, or interruption of benefits for Medicaid applicants and beneficiaries.
