The section requires the State to treat a person as having met the rule for a month where, for part or all of that month, the person was a specified excluded individual, was under 19, was entitled to or enrolled for Medicare part A or enrolled for part B, or fell within named subclauses of section 1902(a)(10)(A)(i), and where a short-term hardship event applied during a three month window. The State may choose not to make the person verify the facts behind the deeming.

That sentence, in plain words

The state must treat the person as having met the rule. It may also skip asking them to prove it.

What this is about

Several groups are covered. Under 19s are one. People on Medicare are another. A short-term hardship also counts.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
