Code Definition A Use optional supplement (OS) code “A” for independent living with cooking facilities for an eligible recipient or couple who meet one of the following situations: • live in their own household, as defined for Federal living arrangement (FLA) “A” purposes, and have cooking and food storage facilities or living arrangement provides meals; • a patient in a certified private medical facility where Title XIX does not pay more than 50 percent of the cost of care; • a blind child under age 18 living in the household of a parent or parents, or is a disabled child age 18 or over who meets sharing criteria and is living in the household of a parent or parents; • a blind recipient who lives in an independent living arrangement with or without cooking and food storage facilities; or • lives in a private medical facility licensed by the State but not certified under Title XIX. B Apply OS code “B” for non-medical out-of-home care (NMOHC) when a recipient or couple needs non-medical care or supervision in the following living arrangement situations: Children (under age 18) • blind child residing in a State licensed NMOHC facility; • blind child residing in the home of a relative who is not a parent and not a legal guardian; • disabled child residing in a State licensed NMOHC facility; • Disabled child residing in the home of a legal guardian who is not a relative; • disabled child residing in the home of a relative who is not a parent (Major v. McMahon decision); or • blind or disabled child in a “certified family” home approved by a licensed home-finding agency (“certified family home placement”). Adults (age 18 and over) An aged, blind, or disabled recipient: • or couple is determined to be in FLA “A” and resides in the home of a relative, legal conservator, or guardian; • is determined to be in FLA “A” and resides in a State licensed NMOHC facility; or • is determined to be in FLA “A” and resides in a family home certified by a family home agency under State law. For California optional supplement (OS) purposes, a relative is defined as a: • parent, • child, • sibling, • half- • sibling, • parent's sibling, • sibling's child, • first cousin, or • any person of the preceding generation denoted by the prefix “grand” or “great.” C Independent living without cooking facilities Apply OS code “C” to aged or disabled recipient or couples who are: • not given meals, and • do not have access to adequate cooking or food storage facilities as part of a living arrangement. Transients, as defined in SI 00835.060 , are also eligible for OS “C.” A recipient or couple qualifies for OS “C” if any of the following situations exists: • Immediate living quarters do not have cooking and food storage facilities that the recipient, couple, or another person (who is responsible for preparing their meals) can prepare meals on a daily basis; • Does not have access to adequate cooking and food storage facilities as part of the living arrangement (including cooking and food storage facilities, which are outside the immediate living quarters) for the purpose of preparing meals or having them prepared on their behalf; • Lives in a boarding house that does not have a communal kitchen with adequate cooking and food storage facilities that they can access for preparing meals; • Lives with friends or relatives in private living quarters in the same house or in separate living quarters (for example, “over the garage”) or in a similar situation and does not have access to the cooking and food storage facilities in the main residence for preparing meals; or • Lives in a room and board facility and does not contract with the facility to have meals prepared and provided as part of the living arrangement (for example, the Supplemental Security Income (SSI) recipient’s arrangement with the facility is to purchase only shelter on a monthly basis). “Adequate” cooking and food storage facilities exist when a recipient or couple has access to the following: • both a working refrigerator or icebox and a stove without a working oven but with at least two working burners. (Do not consider the capacity of the refrigerator or icebox when making this determination. Also, do not consider an ice chest to be adequate storage.); • both a working refrigerator or icebox and a hotplate with at least two burners with separate temperature controls, or two one-burner hotplates with temperature controls. (Do not consider hotplates without temperature controls used for warming food as “adequate cooking facilities.”); or • both a working refrigerator or icebox and a stove with a working oven or functioning microwave oven in combination with at least one working burner on a stove, or a one-burner hotplate with a temperature control. Eligibility for OS “C” begins in the month the recipient applies for this supplement rate, provided they have been without cooking and food storage facilities throughout the month. NOTE: For purposes of OS “C,” “throughout a month” does not mean the recipient must lack adequate cooking or food storage facilities from the very first moment of the month. The recipient need only lack them from some time on the first day of the month. If you based eligibility on temporary loss or non-functioning of an appliance, advise the recipient of their responsibility to report immediately when the temporary condition ceases. If the recipient provides an expected date when someone will replace or repair the appliance, diary the case for re-contact. Eligibility for this supplementary payment ceases the month following the month in which the individual or couple receives meals or adequate cooking and food storage facilities are available. For a couple, comprised of an aged or disabled recipient and a blind recipient, whose living arrangement lacks adequate cooking and storage facilities, the couple must receive the Supplemental Security Income and State Supplement Payment level for a blind, aged, or disabled couple plus the restaurant meals allowance for the disabled member of the couple. This living arrangement requires force due payment. D Living in the household of another Apply OS code “D” when an eligible individual or couple is living in the household of another and receives food and shelter from that person. Most recipient or couples who are subject to a one-third reduction of their Federal SSI payments are eligible for OS “D” because the criteria for this supplement level are the same as for charging the one-third reduction. However, when the eligible recipient or couple lives in the home of a relative (other than a spouse) and needs care and supervision, you must obtain certification for non-medical out-of-home care (OS “F”) from the county welfare office since this is the highest categorical supplement that a recipient or couple can qualify. E Disabled child under age 18 Apply OS code “E” to a disabled (not blind) child under age 18 who resides with a parent or relative by blood or marriage. NOTE: Only FLA “A” and “C” are compatible with OS “E.” If the value of the one-third reduction (VTR) applies, see code “G.” F Non-medical out-of-home care living in the household of another OS code “F” applies whenever an eligible recipient or couple meets the criteria for the non-medical out-of-home care payment rate, and is determined to receive the Federal code “B” payment for living in the household of another. For the one-third reduction provision, see SI 00835.200 . G Disabled child under 18 living in the home of another OS code “G” applies to a disabled (not blind) child under age 18, who resides with a parent or relative by blood or marriage, and is determined to receive the Federal code “B” payment for living in the household of another person. For the one-third reduction provision, see SI 00835.200 . J Residents of Title XIX facilities Effective July 1, 1987, apply OS State code “J” to an eligible recipient who is a patient in a medical facility where Title XIX pays more than 50 percent of the costs. Apply OS State code “J” to supplement Section 1619 cases. Y Optional supplementation waived Use OS code “Y” to indicate that a recipient is eligible for an optional supplement but waived their right to receive the supplement. Z No supplement cases Apply OS code “Z” to an eligible recipient who is a patient in a private medical facility not certified under Title XIX and not licensed by the State. Include in this category those recipients who are residing throughout a month in a publicly operated emergency shelter. For periods prior to July 1, 1987, apply OS code “Z” to an eligible recipient who is a patient in a medical facility where Title XIX pays more than 50 percent of the costs.

Code Definition A Independent living or living in parental household Use OS code “A” for an aged or blind eligible recipient who meets one of the following situations: a. Lives in their own household as defined for Federal living arrangement “A” purposes; b. Is a patient in a certified private medical facility where Title XIX does not pay more than 50 percent of the cost of care; or c. Is a blind child under age 18 (age 21 for recipients who qualify as a “protected child”) living in a parent's household. Use with an “intervening” Federal code “A.” For optional State supplement codes, see SM 01301.535. B Living in the household of another Use OS code “B” for aged or blind recipient who is living in the household of another and receiving food and shelter from that person. Aged or blind recipients who are subject to a one-third reduction (VTR) of their Federal SSI payment are eligible for optional supplement “B” because the criteria for this supplement level are the same as for Federal code “B.” C Domiciliary care Apply OS code “C” to aged or blind recipients who the State has certified to live in a private non-medical facility or, a residential facility serving 16 or fewer persons that provides personal care and services to aged, infirm, or handicapped adult persons who are unrelated to the proprietor. The State licenses these facilities for direct payment. The State provides SSA with listings of these facilities. Y Optional supplementation waived Use OS code “Y” to indicate that a recipient is eligible for an optional supplement but has waived their right to receive supplementation. Z Apply “No Supplement ” code “Y” to the following recipients: • disabled eligible recipient or disabled member of eligible couple; • eligible recipient or member of eligible couple in a medical facility where Title XIX pays more than 50 percent of the cost; • eligible recipient or member of eligible couple who is a patient in a private medical facility, which is not certified under Title XIX; or • recipients who are residing throughout a month in publicly operated emergency shelters.

NOTE: Nevada is a concurrent category State and permits SSI recipients to receive the highest categorical supplement for which they can qualify. For more information on multi-category eligibility, see SI 00501.300B.3.

Code Definition A Congregate care Apply OS code “A” to recipients in Federal living arrangement “A.” The living arrangement includes: • recipients in residential facilities who are under the supervision of the Department of Human Services; • children and adults in residential facilities (both inside and outside of NJ) who are under the supervision of, or placed by the NJ Department of Human Services’ Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD) or Division of Youth and Family Services (DYFS); and • recipients living in assisted living residences or comprehensive personal care homes (CPCH) licensed by the Department of Health and Senior Services. B Living alone or with others Use OS code “B” for recipients whose Federal living arrangements are “A” or “C” and who do not meet the requirements defined in other supplementation categories. You must consider any eligible recipient who meets the requirement for a Federal code “A” to be in optional supplement “B” unless they are residing in a residential health care facility or living alone with an ineligible spouse. Likewise, any child meeting the criteria for a Federal code “C” is automatically entitled to optional supplement “B.” This category includes, but is not limited to, recipients who are in one of the following situations: 1. Living physically alone; 2. Living with others in a private dwelling, but meet some criteria for Federal living arrangement “A;” or 3. Placed in a transitional residency program by the Division of Mental Health and Hospitals, Department of Human Services. Optional supplement code “B” is the proper code to use with an “intervening” Federal code “A.” For State supplement codes, see SM 01301.535. Use OS code “B” to address Section 1619 cases. C Living alone with an ineligible spouse Use OS code “C” when a recipient lives with ONLY their ineligible spouse and NO other persons are part of the household. Use Federal criteria to determine an ineligible spouse for State supplementation purposes (i.e., a spouse, either by marriage or holding out as spouses) who is either not eligible for SSI or who chooses not to apply. If other persons, even minor children, are present in the household, you cannot apply this OS code. It is possible that a claimant and the ineligible spouse live with others and allege that they are a separate “household” by virtue of the fact that they eat their meals out or have separate purchase and preparation of food. In this instance, you may consider an optional supplement “C” as long as no other person is considered part of the “household.” There is no couple counterpart in this category. A transient recipient who co-exists only with an ineligible spouse also qualifies as OS code “C.” Always consider parent(s) with minor children to be in the same household and code the case OS code “B.” D Living in the household of another Apply OS code D to recipients who are “living in the household of another” for Federal purposes. I Licensed residential health care facilities (RHCF) Apply OS code “I” to recipients living in: • attached nursing homes; • assisted living residence; • CPCH; or • “free-standing” licensed residential health care facilities. We paid residents of these facilities the OS “A” rate prior to January 1, 2006. We must base our authorization for this payment on the recipient's verified residence at a facility listed in the New Jersey Congregate Care Directory. Only the RHCF section of a multipurpose facility is eligible for the OS code “I” rate. Pay residents of the assisted living resident (ALR or CPCH section of a multipurpose facility) at the OS code “A” rate. Nursing home residents are in living arrangement (“D” or “G”) if Medicaid pays more than 50 percent of the cost of care. G Apply OS code “G” effective September 1, 1988, when the State elected Federal administration of an optional State supplementary payment to residents of Title XIX facilities. Y Optional supplementation waived Use OS code “Y” to indicate that a recipient is eligible for an optional supplement but waived their right to receive supplementation. Z No supplement cases Apply OS code “Z” to recipients: • in licensed medical facilities where Medicaid is paying less than 50 percent of the cost of care; • in publicly operated community residences having 16 or less residents; and • residing throughout a month in publicly operated emergency shelters. You can also apply OS code “Z” to cases that were FLA “D” prior to January 1988, or effective December 1, 1996, to children residing in public or private facilities where private health insurance paid for their care. For determination of applicability of $30 payment limit, see SI 00520.011 .

NOTE: All State Supplement payments, except for medicaid facilities, include a Lifeline payment which is a utility assistance program for older people and people with disabilities that offers an annual benefit amount for individuals who receive SSI.

Use this table to view the code and definitions of State living arrangement variations:

Code Definition A Independent living (except Chittenden County) Apply OS code “A” to several situations including recipients who: • are not living in the household of another; • are not in a residential or custodial care situation; • are under age 18 and live with a parent; • reside in a private Title XIX facility where Medicaid is not paying more than 50 percent of the cost of care; • reside throughout a month in a publicly operated emergency shelter. B Independent living in Chittenden County Apply OS code “B” to all recipients living in situations described in “A” above except restricted to residents of Chittenden County. C Licensed residential care home or assisted living residence with assistive community care services (Level III) Apply OS code “C” to recipients residing in Level III facilities identified by the State. To determine if the facility meets the requirements for OS code “C,” refer to the Division of Licensing and Protection for Vermont State . E Living in the household of another Apply OS code “E” to recipients who live in the household of another and receive support and maintenance from them (subject to the Federal one-third reduction provisions). G Licensed residential care home or therapeutic community residence (Level IV) Apply OS code “G” to recipients residing in Level IV facilities identified by the State. Apply OS code “G” to recipients residing in Level IV facilities identified by the State. To determine if a facility meets the requirements for OS code “G,” refer to the Division of Licensing and Protection for Vermont State . H Custodial care: family hom e Apply OS code “H” to recipients who: • live in another's home, • pay room and board to that home owner, and • receive one or more of the services outlined under the custodial care definition. To qualify as a home under this arrangement, a resident of the home must provide the services to two persons or less. In some cases, the Vermont Department of Disabilities, Aging, and Independent Living (DAIL) has established outplacement programs meeting the definition of living arrangement (L/A) “H.” To qualify these programs must meet the above requirements. Custodial care means providing basic room and board, plus personal services such as: • help with feeding, • dressing, • bathing, • moving about under normal circumstances, or • occasional tray service (tray service two-three times a week), which may include supervision for the recipient's protection. Supervision for the recipient's protection deals primarily with protection services for retarded and emotionally disturbed recipients. A person who receives one or more of these personal services is receiving custodial care. I Apply OS code “I” effective July 1, 1987, when the State elected Federal administration of an optional State supplementary payment to residents in Title XIX facilities. This includes children under the age of 18 for whom Medicaid alone pays, or is expected to pay, over 50 percent of the cost of care for that month. Y Optional supplementation waived Use this OS code “Y” to indicate that a recipient is eligible for an optional supplement, but waived their right to receive supplementation.
