Section 10:69-1.4 - Aid to Families with Dependent Children (AFDC)-related Medicaid

(a) The AFDC-related Medicaid program is a State program with Federal participation. It is designed to make payments to providers for medical care and services on behalf of certain individuals whose income is determined to be inadequate to enable them to secure quality medical care at their own expense.

(b) The AFDC-related Medicaid program is composed of two segments:

1. AFDC-C related Medicaid, through which medical assistance is provided for children and their natural or adoptive parents or certain designated relatives with whom they were living, when they are financially eligible and deprived of parental support and care by reason of death, continued absence, or incapacity of one or both parents; and

2. AFDC-F related Medicaid, through which medical assistance is provided to families with children when both parents are in the home, neither is incapacitated and the principal earner meets the Federal definition of unemployment.

(c) Information, applications and staff agency personnel shall be available to assist non-English speaking applicants for AFDC-related Medicaid income maintenance programs listed in N.J.A.C. 10:69-1.8. Spanish language program material is routinely prepared by the Division and distributed to county agencies. Minority program materials in languages other than Spanish may be prepared based on knowledge of the population served by programs under the auspices of the Division.
