Medical Assistance for People Receiving Services at the Center for Victims of Torture
2.5.2.4.2 Renewals
Enrollees in Medical Assistance for people receiving services from the Center for Victims of Torture (MA-CVT) must have eligibility redetermined every 12 months. The first annual renewal is 12 months from the month of application and renewals occur annually thereafter as long as the enrollee remains eligible for MA. Eligibility for retroactive coverage months do not affect when an enrollee’s annual renewal occurs.
MA-CVT enrollees receive a renewal form. Enrollees must complete, sign and return the renewal form to their county, tribal or state servicing agency. They must include proof they are continuing to receive CVT services. The proof must be dated within 30 days of the date of renewal.
Annual Renewal Month
The annual renewal month is the month in which eligibility is redetermined for the next 12 months. The first annual renewal month after application is 12 months from the month of application and occurs annually thereafter as long as the enrollee remains eligible for MA-CVT.
When Eligibility Ends at Renewal
Changes reported during an enrollee’s renewal may affect an MA enrollee's basis of eligibility. Enrollees who lose eligibility under one basis must be redetermined for all health care programs they are potentially eligible for, without interruption in their coverage. See EPM 1.3.2.1 Change in Circumstances for more information.
