Obsolete 1117 - 340-2 Non-Financial Rules for MAGI

Effective Date: January 1, 2014 - October 31, 2017 (340-2 was incorporated into 232 as of November 1, 2017)

No Previous MAGI Policy

Individuals being determined eligible using the MAGI methodologies must meet the basic non-financial rules such as citizenship or alien status, state residency, duty of support when applicable, provision of a Social Security number, TPL, etc. (200).

Emergency medical assistance under a MAGI-based group is available to individuals who do not meet citizenship or alien status rules, but who meet the other criteria for a MAGI-based eligibility group.

MAGI rules use tax rules to determine a MAGI household, so relationship rules are not always the determining factor used to decide who to count in a MAGI household.  Relationship rules are used for non-tax-filing MAGI households, and may be applied differently than they are for non-MAGI-based eligibility groups (229).
