3.5 MEDICAID – GENERAL ELIGIBILITY The Medicaid assistance group (AG) is composed of the individual(s) who meet(s) the eligibility requirements for coverage under a specific Medicaid coverage group. However, the income of the AG does not determine financial eligibility for all coverage groups. Some coverage groups require the determination of an income group (IG) to determine countable income and a needs group (NG) for comparison to the appropriate needs standard to determine financial eligibility. The case in which the AG member(s) receives coverage may be composed of eligible AG members of one or more coverage groups. The AG, IG, and NG information for all of these groups is found in the following sections. For more information regarding Medicaid eligibility groups, see Chapter 23.
