This DHCS letter instructs counties to resume the remainder of negative case actions for non-MAGI-linked individuals determined eligible under non-MAGI rules. Grandfathering protections do not apply for these individuals. Counties should take these negative actions on non-MAGI linked individuals once SAWS functionality is in place.
Specifically, counties are directed to continue to disregard the 2014 COLA for now; to follow the 10-day notices for adverse action requirements; and to track cases where negative actions were delayed or certain workarounds were put in place until the next change in circumstances or annual redetermination.
