(A) The provisions of 42 U.S.C. 1396p apply to all transfers of resources. In the event that any portion of 130 CMR 520.018 and 520.019 conflicts with federal law, the federal law supersedes.

(C) The denial of payment for nursing-facility services does not affect the individual's eligibility for other MassHealth benefits.

(D) Circumstances giving rise to disqualifying transfers of resources are also described at 130 CMR 520.007(J).
