Regulation Authority:

Chapter 40-6 of the Rhode Island General Laws, as amended; Title XIX of the Social Security Act

Purpose and Reason:

Section 0372: “Special Treatment Coverage Groups” of the Medicaid Code of Administrative Rules is promulgated to ensure the rules are in compliance with State and federal guidance and to reflect an increase in the resource limits for the Qualified Medicare Beneficiaries (QMB), Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiaries (SLMB), and Qualifying Individuals (QI) Programs. The resource limits for the QMB, SLMB, and QI Programs have been increased to $7,160 for a single person and $10,750 for a married person living with a spouse and no other dependents. The Medicare Part B Premium amount remains the same for 2014 at $104.90/month. Other technical revisions to the rule included changing references from “Medical Assistance” to “Medicaid.”
