Section 13. Eligibility Requirements For Recipient Enrollment In Mi Via

Enrollment in the mi via program is contingent upon the applicant meeting the eligibility requirements as described 8.314.6 NMAC 11 in this rule, the availability of funding as appropriated by the New Mexico legislature, and the number of federally authorized unduplicated eligible recipients. When sufficient funding as well as waiver positions are available, DOH will offer the opportunity to eligible recipients to select mi via. Once an allocation has been offered to the applicant, he or she must meet certain medical and financial criteria in order to qualify for mi via enrollment located in 8.290.400 NMAC. The eligible recipient must meet the LOC required for admittance to an ICF-IID. After initial eligibility has been established for a recipient, on-going eligibility must be determined on an annual basis.
