A. Factual notification of death. Eligibility is terminated as of the death date.
B. Established that a beneficiary has moved from Mississippi through information received from the beneficiary or because another state reports the beneficiary has been accepted as a resident for Medicaid in that state. Eligibility is terminated at the end of the month in which action is taken to close the case.
