Richards’s eligibility determination: Potential covered groups: Child < Age 19 FAMIS Monthly Income limits: Child < 19 - 143% FPL for a HH of 3 = $2,477 FAMIS 200% FPL for HH of 3 = $3,464 5% FPL Disregard for HH of 3 = $86
Richard’s gross HH income of $1,425 (his father’s and sibling’s earnings) is less than the FAMIS 200% income limit of $3,464. And as the HH income does not exceed the Medicaid Child < Age 19 income of $2,477, the 5% disregard is not needed. Richard is eligible for full-coverage MA.
