DE Medicaid - Income Limits - FPL-Related

Many of the Income Limits for various poverty and disability benefits are tied to the Federal Poverty Level (FPL). (See Medicaid - Countable Income - FPL Related) for information about income types or amounts that are counted or disregarded.)

Although the federal government usually releases the new FPL numbers in late February or March of each year (and occasionally in January), Delaware chooses to implement the new FPL criteria on different dates depending on the program.

Annual sets of tables below are presented in reverse chronological order (the current year is shown first, followed by previous years.)

Programs

The Federal Poverty Level guidelines are used to compute income eligibility standards for:

·      FPL-Related Covered Groups: Low Income Pregnant Women, Infants and Children; and Low Income Uninsured Adults in the Expanded Population

·      Medicare-Related Medicaid (QMB, SLMB, QI-1, & QDWI)

·      Transitional Medicaid (second six months)

·      Delaware Prescription Assistance Program (DPAP) (see DPAP topic)

The FPL guidelines are also used to determine the income levels for the premium amounts for:

·      Healthy Children Program
