Medicaid program; targeting information for income and eligibility verification systems--HCFA

This rule revises regulations text that is now obsolete because of section 9101 of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1986 (Pub. L. 99-509); this section allows State Medicaid Agencies flexibility to use selectively (target) certain information about a Medicaid recipient's income obtained through their income and eligibility verification systems (IEVS). In addition, this rule implements a congressional directive to revise the timeliness standards for use of IEVS information to grant States more time to obtain and use the data.
