APA WF 22-17 Covering Former Foster Care Youth from Another State

These rule changes were previously approved by the OHCA Board of Directors and the Governor and are currently in effect as emergency rules. Due to Oklahoma Statutes, these rules must be taken through the permanent rulemaking process.

The proposed revisions will implement changes to comply with federal law by requiring SoonerCare to grant eligibility in the former foster care youth category to individuals who were enrolled in Medicaid when they aged out of foster care in another state on January 1, 2023, or later, and who now reside in Oklahoma.  Prior to the federal law changes, SoonerCare was only required to grant eligibility in the former foster care youth category to individuals who were enrolled in Medicaid when they aged out of foster care in Oklahoma.
