TP 43, TP 44 and TP 48
Do not require a new application when a household has an active Medicaid type program and requests to add Medicaid for another child who needs a new EDG. Add the child to the case per additions to the household policy. Exception: Do not add more children to a case where a Medicaid EDG was reinstated due to the child’s release from a juvenile facility. The household must submit an application for the other children. To identify these EDGs, view the Individual – Medicaid History page for the active child. If the Juvenile Placement History field indicates "Yes", the EDG has been reinstated.
This policy does not apply when there is no existing Children's Medicaid EDG. For example, do not add a child when the only other child is certified for Medicaid because the certified child receives SSI. A separate application is required to initiate coverage for the child being added.
