SUBJECT: |
MC+ APPLICATION AND INSTRUCTIONS FMR #25: IM-1UA |
DISCUSSION: |
A revised MC+ Application (IM-1UA) has
been produced, dated June 2000. The following changes were made:
The mailing address section is now labeled Section A. Instructions for Section B (Household Information) now state the social security number is required only for persons applying for MC+ coverage. Section B instructions also explain that race and ethnic group information is optional. Instructions for Section E now state that failure to cooperate with Division of Child Support Enforcement does not effect a child's eligibility for MC+ coverage, but it may affect a parent's eligibility. The "Information Needed" section no longer states Social Security cards may be needed prior to approving the application. In Section A the word, "applicant" has been because the caretaker completing the application may only be applying for MC+ coverage for other family members. In Section F, a statement has been added to explain that a different application must be completed to apply for coverage based on being age 65, blind, or disabled. |
