35.1.5 Process Help Until CARES can be updated to accommodate this policy change, the amount of assets that are disregarded under this policy should be designated as 'unavailable’ in CARES. When processing an Asset Assessment (AA) the whole asset amount should be counted as available. Once the AA is completed, update the availability question to indicate the amount paid out by the LTCIP is unavailable. Be sure to document in Case Comments why the asset is being treated as unavailable. The documentation provided for verification of the LTCIP policy and pay out should be scanned into the ECF under the Asset Information subfolder.

It covers people under age 65 who have been diagnosed with and need treatment for breast or cervical cancer or certain precancerous conditions of the breast or cervix. WWWMA is a fee-for-service Medicaid program. Members are not enrolled in an HMO. A person must be enrolled in one of the following entry programs before they can initially enroll in WWWMA: • Wisconsin Well Woman Program (WWWP) • Family Planning Only Services (FPOS) • BadgerCare Plus Note Temporary enrollment (also known as presumptive eligibility) in FPOS or BadgerCare Plus does not meet this entry program requirement for WWWMA eligibility.

The individual must also meet all requirements in SECTION 36.3.1 INTRODUCTION. Once the person is enrolled in WWWMA, they do not have to reapply for any of the above programs, as they will have full-benefit Medicaid coverage through WWWMA.
