Section 660-2-4-.26 - Non-SSI Supplementation (SUP) Recipients

(1) Eligible non-SSI SUP recipients receiving optional supplementation as of March 7, 1986 may continue to receive a monthly payment to supplement their other income to help pay for the cost of their care. Eligibility continues only for as long as all optional supplementation program eligibility requirements as outlined in chapter 660-2-4 are met as well as the requirement of only being ineligible for SSI due to income.

(2) Eligibility on the factors of age, disability, blindness, residence, citizenship, resources and income is based on the criteria of Title XVI of the Social Security Act.

(3) A separate income and resource determination is necessary in these cases. Persons determined eligible receive a supplement in the amount of the difference in countable income and the amount of the applicable supplement payable dependent upon type of care needed. The individual must not have currently available resources in excess of the maximum established by Title XVI or gross countable income in excess of the limit established by the Alabama Medicaid Agency or total net countable income in excess of the appropriate supplement. (See attachments 660-2-4-.19 a and 660-2-4-.26 a.) Rules in 20 C.F.R. 416, Subpart K, govern types of countable income and income exclusions. Rules in 20 C.F.R. 416, Subpart L, govern types of countable resources and resource exclusions. The provisions of Title 20, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 416, Subparts K and L, such regulations being in effect October 30, 1972 through April 1, 1984, and as all of the same may be amended, are hereby adopted by reference. A copy of the adopted matter may be found in the attached Appendix A.
