12VAC30-110-1400: Authorized representative for a deceased applicant

An application may be made on behalf of a deceased person by his guardian or conservator, attorney-in-fact, executor or administrator of his estate, his surviving spouse, or his surviving family member, in this order of preference: adult child, parent, adult sibling, adult niece or nephew, or aunt or uncle. Such application must be filed within the three-month period subsequent to the month in which the death occurred if the deceased applicant received a Medicaid-covered service on or before the date of death and the date of service occurred within a month covered by the Medicaid application.
