24-001.01F2 Medically Needy Minor's Parent(s)

If a minor parent is living with his/her medically needy parent(s) who is receiving Medicaid for another child, the minor parent must be in his/her parent(s)’s unit. If assistance is received for the minor’s child, that child must also be in the parent(s)’s unit. When a minor parent becomes emancipated, graduates from secondary school at age 18, or reaches age 19, s/he and his/her child become a separate unit. Note: The family is not required to receive Medicaid for the minor’s child.
