WAC 182-510-0010. Eligibility after supplemental security income ends

(1) Your categorically needy (CN) coverage (WAC 182-512-0100 ) continues after supplemental security income (SSI) ends if: (a) Countable income exceeds the SSI income standard due solely to the annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA); or (b) A timely request for a hearing has been filed. CN coverage is continued until the Social Security Administration (SSA) makes a final decision on the hearing request and on any subsequent timely appeals. (2) If your SSI ends, your CN coverage continues for a period of up to one hundred twenty days while the agency reviews your eligibility for other cash or medical programs. (3) If you are a terminated SSI or SSI-related recipient, the agency will review your disability status when: (a) You present new medical evidence; (b) Your medical condition changes significantly; or (c) Your termination from SSI was not based on a review of current medical evidence. (4) Children terminated from SSI due to loss of disabled status may be eligible for medical benefits under WAC 182-505-0210 .
