Maryland Dep't. of Health and Mental Hygiene v. Ctrs. for Medicare and Medicaid Servs., 071512

Petition for review of disapproval of amendment to State Medicaid Plan (SPA) that sought to eliminate deductions for uncovered medical expenses that Medicaid recipients incurred before becoming eligible for benefits is denied where: 1) in promulgating regulations for states to follow in calculating the post-eligibility income of nursing home residents, respondent-agency did not clearly exceed its authority; and 2) respondent-agency's interpretation of SPA was not unambiguously rejected by the plain language of section 1396(r)(1)(A).
