Section 7192 - Computation of Client Financial Participation

(a) Client financial participation in the cost of vocational rehabilitation services shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of this section.

(b) The client financial participation shall cover a one month period and be determined as follows:

(1) Subtract the appropriate monthly income exemption, based on the number of household members, specified in (c) from the client's total monthly income. This is the client's surplus income. If the remainder is less than zero, the client has zero surplus income.

(2) Subtract $2,000.00 plus $750.00 for each of the client's household members from the client's total liquid assets. These are the client's surplus liquid assets. If the remainder is less than zero, the client has zero surplus liquid assets.

(3) Combine the client's surplus income from (1) and surplus liquid assets from (2).

(4) Subtract the client's total medical exemptions from the amount determined in (3). The remainder, if any, is the amount of the monthly client financial participation which the client shall be required to contribute toward the cost of vocational rehabilitation services not exempt pursuant to section 7191(c).

(c) The client and his/her household members shall be allowed a monthly income exemption of the following amount:

*Size of Household (including client)*	*Monthly Income Exemption*
