Purpose.

(1) This chapter describes eligibility requirements for the Washington apple health (WAH) modified adjusted gross income (MAGI)-based long-term care program (LTC) for children and adults who have been admitted to an institution as defined in WAC 182-500-0050 for at least 30 days. The rules are stated in the following sections:
(a) WAC 182-514-0240 General eligibility;
(b) WAC 182-514-0245 Resource eligibility;
(c) WAC 182-514-0250 Program for adults age 19 and older;
