This collection is necessary to verify income and eligibility requirements for Medicaid recipients, as required by Section 1137 of the Social Security Act.
Our state plan estimate has been revised while the remaining changes remove provisions/burden that are no longer in effect, exempt burden, or remove duplicative provisions/burden that are approved under other collections. The template is unchnaged, rather, the burden has been adjusted to reflect our more accurate estimate.
