Presumptive Eligibility is a process that allows qualified entities to determine if an individual can receive short-term Medicaid. It provides individuals with temporary Medicaid coverage while KanCare processes their application for Medicaid.

General Eligibility Requirements

General Eligibility Requirements can be defined as specific conditions which must be met for a consumer to be eligible for medical benefits.

Qualified entities can make presumptive eligibility determinations for Pregnant Women, Children, Former Foster Care, Breast or Cervical Cancer (BCC) patients currently receiving treatment, parents, and other caretakers. These consumers must be a resident of Kansas, a U.S. Citizen, or eligible Non-Citizen, and meet income guidelines.
