Medicaid Program - Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiaries Eligibility - Oklahoma

Individuals who are aged, blind, or disabled are eligible for medical services as a Specified Low-Income Medicare Beneficiary (SLMB) if they meet the following conditions of eligibility:

·             The individual is enrolled for Medicare hospital insurance benefits under Medicare Part A

·             The individual’s/couple’s income and resources cannot exceed 120% of the Federal Poverty Level.

NOTE: State Supplemental Payments are not considered when determining countable income.

Countable income and resources are determined using the same rules followed in determining eligibility for individuals categorically related to aid to the aged, blind, or disabled, except that a $20 general income disregard is also applied to either earned or unearned income, but not both. For couples, only one $20 general income disregard is given.

See Oklahoma DHS Appendix C-1, Schedule VII for income and resource limits.
