Revision 11-4; Effective December 1, 2011
All regular MEPD policies for resources apply to this program, except those specifically identified in Chapter M.
| Resource | Detail |
|---|---|
| Resource Limit | Countable resources must be equal to or less than $2,000. |
| Exclusions | When determining resource exclusions, use current MEPD eligibility criteria, including the special $3,000 MBI Resource Exclusion. Count any non-excluded separate resources of the applicant. |
| Spouse | Do not count any separate resources of the spouse. If the person and the ineligible spouse have a jointly owned resource with unrestricted access, consider that each owns an equal share. Divide the countable value of the resource, counting half as available to the applicant. |
| Jointly Owned | If a non-excluded resource is jointly owned with other persons (not the spouse), use current MEPD eligibility criteria. |
