QDWI eligibles must not be otherwise eligible for Medicaid. When an individual applies for QDWI, explore eligibility for other types of assistance. Record the determination of ineligibility for other assistance on the IM-2. If the claimant is eligible for any other type of assistance, s/he is not eligible for QDWI. NOTE: If it appears the claimant is MA eligible, a disability determination by MRT is required.
