Rsdi Recipient Entitled To Cola Disregard

A participant receiving RSDI is eligible for Medicaid if they became and remain ineligible for SSI payments as of April 2011, or for AABD cash or SSI payments from May 1977 through March 2011. The participant must still be entitled to AABD cash or SSI, except for a COLA in RSDI benefits. All RSDI COLAs received by the participant, and any person whose income and resources are counted in determining the participant’s eligibility, are disregarded for Medicaid. (7-1-24)
