Medicaid program: outstation intake locations for certain low-income pregnant women, infants, and children under age 19--HCFA. Interim final rule with comment period.
This interim final rule interprets the statutory requirement that State Medicaid agencies must provide for receiving and initially processing Medicaid applications by certain low-income pregnant women, infants, and children under age 19 at locations other than those used for the receipt and processing of applications for Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC). The statutory requirement also provides that the application form for these individuals must be different from the application form used for AFDC. The basis for the rule is section 1902(a)(55) of the Social Security Act, as added by section 4602(a)(3) of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1990.
