I. Purpose
The purpose of this Administrative Directive (ADM) is to advise social services districts of amendments to the New York State Social Services and Public Health Laws to provide expanded Medicaid eligibility for pregnant women and infants less than one year of age when family incomes are at or below 200% of the federal income official poverty line (as defined and annually reported by the federal Office of Management and Budget). This Directive also provides districts with instructions to implement the changes resulting from the increased income eligibility standard to 200% of the federal poverty line (FPL) for presumptive and ongoing eligibility for Medicaid for pregnant women and children less than one (1) year of age.
