An authorized representative designated by the individual or as otherwise allowed under OAR 461-115-0090 may be used if necessary.
(2) In the GA, OSIP, OSIPM, and QMB programs, an individual may receive benefits in an acute care hospital as long as they meet program eligibility requirements.
(3) In the SNAP program, regular monthly benefits continue if the individual will be in their own home 50 percent of the time or more. If the individual will be in an acute care hospital for more than 50 percent of a calendar month, the individual is not eligible for SNAP benefits.
