Example: Mr. George’s net monthly income is too high for him to be eligible for any of the Medicare Beneficiary programs. He cannot become eligible through the MA deductible process. If he is also applying for MA medically needy eligibility, calculate his MA deductible (4.9.5). When he meets his MA deductible, he becomes eligible for MA, but not for any of the Medicare Beneficiary programs. |
