Section 416.2145 - Services other than Medicaid determinationsWe will agree under authority of section 1106 of the Act and 31 U.S.C. 6505 to provide services other than Medicaid determinations to help the State administer its Medicaid program. We will do this only if we determine it is the most efficient and economical way to accomplish the State's purpose and does not interfere with administration of the SSI program. The services can be part of a Medicaid eligibility determination agreement or a separate agreement. Under either agreement we will-
(a) Give the State basic information relevant to Medicaid eligibility from individuals' applications for SSI benefits;(b) Give the State answers to certain purely Medicaid-related questions (in addition to any that may be necessary under § 416.2111(b) ), such as whether the SSI applicant has any unpaid medical expenses for the current month or the previous 3 calendar months;(c) Conduct statistical or other studies for the State; and(d) Provide other services the State and we agree on.
