(FCRC/All Kids Unit)

Approve Moms & Babies during the 60-day postpartum period, for a woman who is no longer pregnant when she applies but is eligible for Moms and Babies.

  • Example 1: A woman who is no longer pregnant applies 07/14/18. The pregnancy ended 04/11/18. The woman is found eligible for Moms and Babies starting 04/18. Since the woman is eligible for Moms & Babies as a pregnant woman, she is eligible for the 60-day postpartum coverage.
  • Example 2: A woman who is no longer pregnant applies 08/31/18. The pregnancy ended 04/11/18. The woman is ineligible for the 60-day postpartum coverage because she could not establish Moms & Babies eligibility as a pregnant woman during the month of application or within 3 months before the month of application.
