Medicaid program; eligibility and coverage requirements--HCFA. Final Rule.
This final rule withdraws regulations setting forth a mandatory budgetary method for determining financial eligibility for individuals who are not receiving or deemed to be receiving Federal cash assistance but whose financial eligibility for Medicaid is being determined through the application of financial criteria of the Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC) program. These regulations were previously issued as part of a final rule with comment period originally published on January 19, 1993, and were to be effective October 18, 1994. This final rule also makes conforming technical changes, as a result of this withdrawal, to the remainder of the January 19, 1993, final rule and reaffirms the August 18, 1994, effective date of this remaining part. These changes are being made as a result of consideration of public comments received.
