Sec. 416.264  When does the special SSI eligibility status apply.

    The special SSI eligibility status applies for the purposes of 
establishing or maintaining your eligibility for Medicaid. For these 
purposes we continue to consider you to be a blind or disabled 
individual receiving benefits even though you are in fact no longer 
receiving regular SSI benefits or special SSI cash benefits. You must 
meet the eligibility requirements in Sec. 416.265 in order to qualify 
for the special SSI eligibility status. Special SSI eligibility status 
also applies for purposes of reacquiring status as eligible for regular 
SSI benefits or special SSI cash benefits.
