    Income Reporting Threshold
    Hi Alex,... read more

    Hi Alex,
    Sorry it's taken so long for me to respond. Washington has continuous eligibility for children in Medicaid/CHIP so we won't have the same challenges that you do in D.C. We're working right now on developing an income reporting standard for adults to report changes. When I have something more concrete on this I'll pass it along to you.

    How are other states handling the flexible reporting threshold under 45 C.F.R. 155.330(b)(3)? We cover children in Medicaid up to 300% FPL are concerned about mixed households where the children are in Medicaid and the parents are receiving APTC. We don’t necessarily want two different reporting thresholds for Exchange versus Medicaid. Also, given our high income threshold, have chosen not to do continuous eligibility for children.

    Ohio Medicaid will expand presumptive eligibility for Medicaid to pregnant women and allow
    certain qualified providers—federally qualified health centers (and look-alikes), children’s
    hospitals and other providers—to perform a simplified check and grant immediate medical
    assistance to both children and pregnant women. Ohio will begin testing the enhanced
    presumptive eligibility program this month at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus,
    MetroHealth System in Cleveland and the Community Action Committee of Pike County, with
    implementation statewide by January 2013.
