Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 22, § 50262.6 - Special Zero Share of Cost Program for Children of Age Six Up to Age Nineteen (100 Percent Program)
(a)
Children who have attained six years of age but have not attained nineteen
years of age are eligible to receive Medi-Cal benefits under the 100 Percent
program if the following conditions are satisfied:
(1) The net nonexempt Medi-Cal Family Budget
Unit (MFBU) income of otherwise eligible children shall not exceed 100 percent
of the federal poverty level as defined in Section
50041.5.
(2) In determining net nonexempt income of
the MFBU, all deductions and exemptions applicable solely to AFDC-MN persons or
families, as provided in Article 10 of this chapter, shall be allowed except
health insurance premiums.
(3) A
child may not reduce MFBU income to the 100 percent level by meeting a share of
cost.
(4) When determining
eligibility for the 100 Percent Program, property shall be disregarded in
accordance with Section
50401(c).
(5) Notwithstanding Section
50014, children are defined for
this program as persons under 19 years of age.
(b) Period of Eligibility:
(1) The period of eligibility for the 100
Percent program shall begin no earlier than the first day of the month of the
child's sixth birthday unless the child is an inpatient for whom medical
services are provided during a continuous period that began before his/her
sixth birthday and he/she remains eligible under Sections
50262 or
50262.5. Once the continuous
inpatient stay ends, the child must be evaluated for the 100 Percent program if
he/she has not attained age nineteen.
(2) The period of eligibility for the 100
Percent program shall end on the last day of the month in which the child
attains age nineteen unless the child is an inpatient for whom medical services
are provided during a continuous period that began before his/her sixth
birthday. In that event, the period of eligibility continues under the 100
Percent program until the end of the stay for which the inpatient services are
furnished so long as the child would have remained eligible under the 100
Percent program but for attaining the age of nineteen.
(c) Scope of Benefits:
(1) An otherwise eligible child shall receive
full Medi-Cal benefits if the child is a United States citizen or meets the
requirements of Section
50301. If the child does not meet
the requirements of this section, services shall be restricted to treatment of
emergency medical conditions and pregnancy related services only.
(2) Services provided under this section
shall not be subject to any share of cost requirements.
