Subchapter 8 - PRESUMPTIVE ELIGIBILITY FOR NJ FAMILYCARE-CHILDREN'S PROGRAM
Section 10:79-8.1 - Scope
This subchapter describes presumptive eligibility for children up to the age of 19 whose family's income is no greater than 350 percent of the Federal Poverty Level and who otherwise meet the eligibility requirements for NJ FamilyCare-Children's Program. The presumptive eligibility determination makes it possible for a child or the children in a family to receive NJ FamilyCare-Children's Program medical services on a fee-for-services basis from any NJ FamilyCare-Children's Program fee-for-service participating provider for a temporary period prior to application for NJ FamilyCare-Children's Program benefits and while the application for these benefits is being processed by the county welfare agency or the Statewide eligibility determination agency.
