3. QI1/MQB-E applications dated after November 1st or later, the C.P. end on 12/31 of the next year.

C. Change in Situation/Program Transfers

1. Pending QI1/MQB-E Application

If you learn a QI1/MQB-E applicant has a change in situation and is eligible for MAABD (or under another Medicaid program):

a. Disposition the QI1/MQB-E application:

(1) Approve the case if the a/b was eligible for QI1/MQB-E during any of the retro or ongoing period not covered by full Medicaid, or (2) Process an administrative application if the a/b is eligible for full Medicaid for the entire period covered by the QI1/MQB-E application.

b. If the a/b is not in the agency, the application may be unsigned. However, the new application is subject to all application processing requirements.

c. The date of application is the date the application is signed or the date the applicant (representative, nursing facility, hospital, etc.) requested assistance.

d. If otherwise eligible, the MAABD 6 month ongoing C.P. or 3 month retro C.P. is based on the MAABD date of application, not the QI1/MQB-E date of application. e. If you learn a pending QI1/MQB-E application should be a MQB-Q or

MQB-B application due to the income or a pending MQB-Q or MQB-B

should be a QI1/MQB-E application, process an administrative denial

application. Evaluate for all other Medicaid programs. Do not change the

date of application.
