Ohio Benefits: A mass change will run after adverse action in January but prior to, or on, the last day of adverse action for February, so that MPAP benefits can be impacted as of March 1, 2026. A journal entry will be automatically entered when the Mass Change EDBC Batch was successful. A Notice of Action (NOA) will be generated advising of any changes. An alert or report will be provided for program blocks that are excluded from the Mass Change EDBC Batch. The assigned worker will need to review these cases to determine whether a manual EDBC is needed depending on the fallout reason, issue a manual NOA if there is an eligibility change, and document with a journal entry. Medicaid Eligibility Procedure Letter No. 186 is obsolete upon the effective date of this MEPL.
