When Social Security Administration (SSA) determines a Supplemental Security Income (SSI) only recipient’s stay in a medical facility is to exceed three months, the SSI cash payment is reduced to $30 a month. When this occurs, ACES issues a cash supplement to bring the client’s income up to the Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) standards. For more information, see Apple Health eligibility manual - Long-Term Care - Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) Chart.
When a cash benefit is issued from an L01 AU, the program type is set to SSI MIL Client/Aged with Cash Payment (M), Blind with Cash Payment (N) or Disabled with Cash Payment (O) and the benefit amount displays in the PNA/CPI field in the Income/Expenses section on the Eligibility Details page.
