23 Miss. Code. R. 100-8.4 - Mandatory Coverage of Pregnant Women
A. Coverage is
mandatory for pregnant woman whose household income is at or below the income
standard established by the state, not to exceed one hundred eighty-five
percent (185%) of the federal poverty level converted to a Modified Adjusted
Gross Income (MAGI)-equivalent standard. The Division of Medicaid certifies
eligibility for this group.
B. The
agency must provide categorically needy Medicaid eligibility for an extended
period following termination of pregnancy to women who, while pregnant, applied
for, were eligible for, and received Medicaid services on the day that their
pregnancy ends. This period extends from the last day of pregnancy through the
end of the month in which a sixty (60)-day period, beginning on the last day of
the pregnancy, ends. Eligibility must be provided regardless of changes in the
woman's financial circumstances that may occur within this extended
period.
