Common use of Summary of Childless Adults Clause in Contracts

Summary of Childless Adults. Childless adults is a waiver program for adults who have not been determined Medicaid eligible under a categorical link (aged, blind, disabled, pregnant, under 18 or parent of a deprived child). Childless adults have open ended eligibility with redeterminations every 12 months. An asset test is not required and they have income under 100% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). Eligibility for the Childless Adult program is determined primarily by DES. DES also determines eligibility for Medicaid programs for children, pregnant women, families and the MED program. AHCCCS determines eligibility for CHIP, long term care, aged, blind, disabled populations, the Breast and Cervical Cancer Treatment Program and Medicare Savings Programs. AHCCCS also determines eligibility under Medicaid programs for children, pregnant women, families and the Childless Adult program for family members of KidsCare (CHIP) eligible members. As of March 1, 2011 AHCCCS had about 2,800 Childless Adults in KidsCare households. Although the KidsCare program has been frozen since January 1, 2010, AHCCCS still processes renewals and changes for the active KidsCare population and their families, sometimes resulting in applications for Childless Adults. When KidsCare was open to new enrollment, AHCCCS processed KidsCare and Medicaid applications for everyone in the household. Even though enrollment in KidsCare is now frozen, AHCCCS still manages the entire household, including any category of Medicaid under which a household member qualifies. AHCCCS processes the renewals for the entire household. KidsCare children who age out of KidsCare will be processed by AHCCCS for Childless Adult coverage. Below is an example of a KidsCare household with AHCCCS Care parents: Mother no income eligible for AC Father 3050.00 earnings eligible for AC Child 15 yrs old no income eligible for KidsCare Child 6 yrs old no income eligible for KidsCare Child 10 yrs old no income eligible for KidsCare • Total household income: $3050.00 • KidsCare income limit for family of 5: $4362.00 • The children are ineligible for SOBRA because of their share of their father’s income but they are eligible for KidsCare. • The mother and father are eligible for AHCCCS Care because when the father's income is allocated between the members, their share of the income is $610.00 which is under the $613.00 income limit.
