SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
A. Allotments Prior to FY 2005
Section 1902 of the Social Security
Act (the Act) sets forth the requirements
for State plans for medical assistance.
Before August 5, 1997, section
1902(a)(10)(E) of the Act specified that
the State Medicaid plan must provide
for some or all types of Medicare cost
sharing for three eligibility groups of
low-income Medicare beneficiaries.
These three groups included qualified
Medicare beneficiaries (QMBs),
specified low-income Medicare
beneficiaries (SLMBs), and qualified
disabled and working individuals
(QDWIs).
A QMB is an individual entitled to
Medicare Part A with income at or
below the Federal poverty line (FPL)
and resources below $4,000 for an
individual and $6,000 for a couple. A
SLMB is an individual who meets the
QMB criteria, except that his or her
income is above 100 percent of the FPL
and does not exceed 120 percent of the
FPL. A QDWI is a disabled individual

who is entitled to enroll in Medicare
Part A under section 1818A of the Act,
whose income does not exceed 200
percent of the FPL for a family of the
size involved, whose resources do not
exceed twice the amount allowed under
the Supplementary Security Income
(SSI) program, and who is not otherwise
eligible for Medicaid. The definition of
Medicare cost-sharing at section
1905(p)(3) of the Act includes payment
for premiums for Medicare Part B.
Section 4732 of the Balanced Budget
Act of 1997 (BBA), enacted on August
5, 1997, amended section 1902(a)(10)(E)
of the Act to require States to provide
for Medicaid payment of the Medicare
Part B premiums for two additional
eligibility groups of low-income
Medicare beneficiaries, referred to as
qualifying individuals (QIs).
Specifically, a new section
1902(a)(10)(E)(iv)(I) of the Act was
added, under which States must pay the
full amount of the Medicare Part B
premium for qualifying individuals who
are eligible QMBs but for the fact that
their income level is at least 120 percent
of the FPL but less than 135 percent of
the FPL for a family of the size involved.
These individuals cannot otherwise be
eligible for medical assistance under the
approved State Medicaid plan. The
second group of QIs added under
section 1902(a)(10)(E)(iv)(II) of the Act
includes Medicare beneficiaries who
would be QMBs except that their
income is at least 135 percent but less
than 175 percent of the FPL for a family
of the size involved, who are not
otherwise eligible for Medicaid under
the approved State plan. These QIs were
eligible for only a portion of Medicare
cost sharing consisting of a percentage
of the increase in the Medicare Part B
premium attributable to the shift of
Medicare home health coverage from
Part A to Part B (as provided in section
4611 of the BBA).
Coverage of the second group of QIs
ended on December 31, 2002, and in
2003, section 401 of the Welfare Reform
Bill (Pub. L. 108–89), enacted on
October 1, 2003, eliminated reference to
the QI–2 benefit. In each of the years
2002 and 2003, continuing resolutions
extended the coverage of the first group
of QIs (whose income is at least 120
percent but less than 135 percent of the
Federal poverty line) through the
following fiscal year, but maintained the
annual funding at the FY 2002 level.
In 2004, Public Law 108–448 was
enacted, which continued coverage of
this group through September 30, 2005,
again with no change in funding.
The BBA also added a new section
1933 to the Act to provide for Medicaid
payment of Medicare Part B premiums
