5.6.5 EXTENSIONS FOR PREGNANCY AGS

A pregnant woman who is eligible for Medicaid/Healthy Start stays eligible for:

 

  1. The balance of the pregnancy, and
     

  2.  An additional 60 days after the last day of pregnancy through the end of the month in which the 60th day occurs.
     

The decision on her eligibility need not be made prior to termination of pregnancy, but the application must be before.  A presumptive eligibility application does not meet this application test.
