C-284 Disabled Widows, Widowers, and Disabled Surviving Divorced Spouses MS Manual 07/01/20 The Social Security Administration will determine which individuals are potentially eligible, based on their disability and marital status, and will refer those individuals to DCO for eligibility determinations under these provisions. Application will be made on the DCO-0095, Application for Medicaid Assistance. Refer to MS B-345 for eligibility requirements. C-285 Individuals Who Have Remarried MS Manual 07/01/20 It is possible that some of the individuals referred by SSA will have remarried and will have a spouse in the home. In that case, the spouse will be considered an ineligible spouse, and the deeming of income rules at MS E-440 will apply in determining eligibility. The resulting net income will be compared to the couple’s SSI/SPA for eligibility. Resources will be compared to the couple’s resource limit. In the event SSA refers both members of a married couple for eligibility determination, the SSA income of both individuals will be disregarded, along with the SSI exclusions, before comparing their net income to the SSI/SPA for a couple in the eligibility determination. The couple’s resource limit will apply.
