The purpose of this LCM is to clarify policy regarding the determination of "family size" when the applicant(s) for medical assistance (MA) is a child(ren) born after September 30, 1983 and/or a pregnant woman who are entitled to have their income compared to the appropriate federal poverty line (level). Usually the "Growing Up Healthy" Medicaid/WIC Application for Pregnant Women/Young Children (DSS-2921P) is used for such applicants.
