Title 8: Medicaid Page 1 Iowa Department of Health and Human Services Employees’ Manual Chapter F: Coverage Groups Overview Revised October 10, 2025 Summary of Aid Types and Fund Codes Overview This chapter provides the Medicaid eligibility standards for MAGI-related and non- MAGI-related coverage groups. For additional coverage groups available to some children, see 8-H, Foster Care, Adoption and Guardianship Subsidy. The first part of the chapter explains coverage groups for pregnant and postpartum women and for deemed newborns, which apply to both MAGI-related and non-MAGI- related people. The next sections explain the coverage groups for women who need treatment for breast or cervical cancer. MAGI-related and non-MAGI-related policies do not apply to these coverage groups. The fourth section describes coverage groups for families and children that derive most of their eligibility requirements from the MAGI-related groups, followed by a similar section for coverage groups that are based on the general policies of the non-MAGI- related groups. Summary of Aid Types and Fund Codes This chart includes aid types for the coverage groups discussed in this chapter. See 14-B-Appendix for a complete list of aid types, including those reflecting Refugee Resettlement funding for these coverage groups. The medical aid type reflects the coverage group under which Medicaid eligibility is being granted. The case aid type reflects the type of cash assistance benefits the person receives or the type of medical facility in which the person resides. If the person does not receive cash assistance and does not live in a medical institution, the case aid type and the medical aid type are the same. This is also true if the person receives Medicaid and Food Assistance. For cases in ELIAS, ELIAS uses an ELIAS aid code. Currently, all ELIAS aid codes are mapped back to the corresponding ABC aid type as listed in SSNI and MMIS. See EDBC Roles, Statuses, and Aid Codes for a list of ELIAS aid codes.
