Continuous Eligibility for Pregnant and Postpartum Women - Medical Assistance - Iowa

A pregnant woman who applies for Medicaid before the end of her pregnancy and subsequently establishes Medicaid eligibility remains continuously eligible for Medicaid throughout the pregnancy and postpartum period without regard to any changes in family income. The woman must continue to meet all other eligibility requirements (including resource limits), except monthly reporting, during the rest of her pregnancy.

(See also Postpartum Eligibility.)

"Subsequently establishes Medicaid eligibility" means the woman was determined eligible as a pregnant woman under any coverage group other than Medically Needy. The determination may be made after the pregnancy ends, as long as it was made on an application filed before the end of the pregnancy.
