Medicaid Program - Countable Income - Oklahoma

Gross monthly income is considered in the determination of eligibility for Medicaid. Gross countable income may be derived from many sources, both earned and unearned. Common sources of countable income include:

·             Earned income/self-employment through the receipt of wages, salary, commission or profit, including in-kind benefits received in lieu of wages

·             Retirement and disability benefits, including Veterans' Administration and unemployment benefits, among others

·             Lump sum payments covering a period of more than one month

·             Income from capital resources and rental property

·             Earned income from a Workforce Development program
(See http://www.workforceok.org/ for additional information.)

Some exclusions and deductions apply. A general income exclusion of $20 per month is allowed on the combined earned income of the eligible individual and spouse. After the $20 exclusion, $65 and one-half of the remaining earned income is deducted. The total gross unearned income of the eligible individual and spouse is then added to derive the countable income for eligibility determination.

Special provisions apply for computing the income amount to be deemed by parent(s) and the spouse of the parent to eligible children with disabilities. Special exclusions also apply to blind individuals. For more information about these special provisions, see: OAC 317:35-5-42 at OK Department of Human Services Policy.
