Definition | A code indicating the federal poverty level range in which the family income falls. If the beneficiary's income was assessed using multiple methodologies (MAGI and Non-MAGI), report the income that applies to their primary eligibility group. A beneficiary’s income is applicable unless it is not required by the eligibility group for which they were determined eligible. For example, the eligibility groups for children with adoption assistance, foster care, or guardianship care under title IV-E and optional eligibility for individuals needing treatment for breast or cervical cancer do not have a Medicaid income test. Additionally, for individuals receiving SSI, states with section 1634 agreements with the Social Security Administration (SSA) and states that use SSI financial methodologies for Medicaid determinations do not conduct separate Medicaid financial eligibility for this group. |
