(2) an individual is court ordered into full or partial responsibility CYFD; when CYFD places a child in a new state of residence, the new state of residence is responsible for the provision of medicaid; however, New Mexico must provide limited medicaid coverage for medicaid services that are part of New Mexico's medicaid benefit package and not available in the new state of residence.

(1) When SSA determines that the individual remains eligible for SSI while institutionalized, the SSI benefit is adjusted as follows:

(2) When SSA determines that the individual is not eligible for SSI, the individual or his or her authorized representative should file an application at HSD for institutional care medicaid. If the individual meets all factors of eligibility, approval of the institutional care medicaid application should be coordinated with the SSI closure date. If eligible, there will not be a break in eligibility and the individual shall not receive both SSI and institutional care medicaid in the same month pursuant to 8.281.400.10 NMAC.
