Title 8: Medicaid Page 78 Iowa Department of Health and Human Services Employees’ Manual Chapter F: Coverage Groups Non-MAGI-Related Coverage Groups Revised October 10, 2025 People Ineligible for SSI (or SSA) If there were no increases other than COLAs, your calculation should be equal to the current social security income. If the calculation is off less than $2 from the current actual gross social security benefit, the difference is likely due to rounding. Consider the figures equal. Due to an error or another factor, the social security entitlement may have decreased. If so, confirm it with the Social Security office. If there are benefit increases other than COLAs, count those as income in determining current SSI or SSA eligibility. Verify this income from the client’s records or the Social Security office.
