16 Del. Admin. Code § 13000-13431

Current through Register Vol. 28, No. 7, January 1, 2025
Section 13000-13431 - SSI Recipients

Any individual aged 65 years or over, blind, or permanently disabled (i.e. unable to engage in substantial gainful activity), receiving a benefit through the Supplemental Security Income program, is automatically eligible for Medicaid in Delaware.

Because Delaware covers all SSI beneficiaries, it is known as a "1634 state." Other states, commonly referred to as "209-b states," have more restrictive criteria for eligibility than the SSI program.
