30:4D-21.5 Automatic enrollment in certain pharmaceutical assistance programs.

1. a. If a person who is a recipient of benefits under the "Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled," or PAAD, program becomes ineligible for PAAD because the person's income exceeds the program's income eligibility limit and the person still remains eligible for the "Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program," the person shall be enrolled automatically in the "Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program."

b. If a person who is a recipient of benefits under the "Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program" has a decrease in income that renders the person eligible for PAAD, the person shall automatically be enrolled in PAAD.

c. The Department of Human Services shall establish one application form for use in applying for the PAAD program and the "Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program." The form shall provide for the inclusion of all information necessary to determine eligibility for both programs and advise applicants of the automatic enrollment provisions of subsections a. and b. of this section.

L.2009, c.272, s.1; amended 2012, c.17, s.384.
