Revised Income Restriction for Admission to a Pennsylvania State Veterans' Home

[29 Pa.B. 6531]

   Title 43 Pennsylvania Code Military Affairs, and Section 7.3 (relating to qualifications for admission to a State Veterans Home) provide as follows at subsection (a)(4) . . . The maximum income shall be adjusted each year after 1985 by the same percentage of adjustment applied by the United States Veterans Administration to veterans' disability compensation. The Department will submit the revised limits to the Legislative Reference Bureau for recommended publication as a notice in the Pennsylvania Bulletin and for recommended codification in this chapter. An applicant whose income exceeds the levels established by this section may still qualify for admission if he can demonstrate exceptional circumstances creating a financial need for admission to the home.

   Effective immediately, the allowable income for a single Domiciliary care applicant is $24,432 per year plus $1,404 per year per dependent, the maximum income paid to a 100% disabled veteran by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs. An income below the $24,432 will demonstrate the applicant may be incapable of self-support and demonstrate a financial need. An amount above the $24,432 may qualify an applicant for admission on his/her ability to pay the full per diem cost.
