Expands Medicaid eligibility for older adults with disabilities in Connecticut.
The bill modifies Medicaid eligibility criteria to include older adults with disabilities. It allows for the disregard of certain income sources, such as Department of Veterans Affairs-administered non-service-connected pension benefits, Aid and Attendance pension benefits, and Housebound pension benefits, when determining eligibility for HUSKY A and HUSKY D programs. This change aims to ensure that more older adults with disabilities can qualify for Medicaid coverage.
