Determining Gross Income
When determining a client’s gross income for use in an LTC income calculation remember these things:
- Count only the income of the person requesting MA-LTC when using an LTC income calculation. Do not deem income of a parent or spouse.
The income used in an LTC income calculation must accurately reflect the amount of income the client actually received in a month. The LTC income calculation must be changed, even retroactively, to reflect the actual income a client received in a month. Income must be verified at the time the change is reported.
