Sec. 17.5. (a) This section applies beginning on the date on which the United States Department of Health and Human Services approves the request for changes by the office under this section.
(b) This subsection applies to applicants or recipients who are exempt from the use of modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) as described in 42 U.S.C. 1396a(e)(14)(D) in determining eligibility. The office may not consider income earned by an applicant, a recipient, or a member of the applicant's or recipient's family for participating in:
(1) a work based learning course (as defined in IC 20-43-8-0.7); or
(2) paid postsecondary work experience that allows the individual to apply for a related apprenticeship (as defined by IC 20-43-8-0.3);
as income in determining the applicant's or recipient's eligibility for Medicaid.
(c) For an applicant or recipient for whom the modified adjusted gross income (MAGI) is applicable, the office shall elect to apply a reasonable method to include a prorated portion of reasonably predictable future income as a factor concerning the income earned by the applicant or recipient by participating in a work based learning course, as set forth in 42 CFR 435.603(h)(3).
(d) The office shall apply for any state plan amendment or Medicaid waiver necessary to implement this section.
