§ 50193. Beginning Date of Eligibility.
Currentness
(a) The beginning date of eligibility for Medi-Cal for persons who apply under any public assistance program shall be the first day of the month of application, providing the person meets the citizenship, residency, linkage and financial eligibility criteria of the appropriate program, notwithstanding the beginning date of the cash grant. For persons who do not meet these eligibility criteria during the month of application, the beginning date of eligibility shall be the first day of the first month in which the above specified eligibility criteria of the appropriate program are met.
(b) The beginning date of eligibility for Medi-Cal specified in (a) shall also apply to:
(1) Persons who apply for AFDC and meet eligibility criteria in the month of application but whose eligibility is denied because they no longer meet eligibility criteria at the time eligibility for AFDC is determined.
(2) Persons who apply for SSI/SSP and meet the eligibility criteria but are denied because they die before the application can be processed and an application is filed on their behalf at the county department within 30 days of receipt of a written notice of denial.
(c) The beginning date of eligibility for persons applying only for Medi-Cal shall be: the first day of the month of application, if all eligibility criteria of the appropriate Medi-Cal program are met. If the eligibility criteria are not met during the month of application, the beginning date of eligibility shall be the first day of the month, subsequent to the month of application, during which the eligibility criteria of the appropriate Medi-Cal program are met.
(d) For the purposes of (c), eligibility criteria are considered to be met throughout the month if they are met at any time during the month, except for persons specified in Section 50273(a).
