Denying the First & Second Months of Benefits – Non-Medical

To process a case when the first and second months of an application need denied, Run EDBC for the application month. KEES EDBC denies the application and a NOA is created.  If the consumer is also ineligible for the month following the month of application for the same reason, append the NOA to include the month following the application month, then return to the Case Summary page to rescind the denied application following the steps below.

NOTE: If the user is unsure if the month following the month of application should be denied, complete Denying the First Month of Benefits, then run EDBC for the month following the month of application. If the consumer is denied for the month following the month of application, use the steps for Denying the First & Second Months of Benefits.

Rescinding a program reinstates an existing application date to Pending status after the application had been denied or discontinued. Rescinding sets a program to Pending without logging a new application date.

To undo a denial or discontinuance of a person and/or program use the Rescind button on the ‘Non-Medical’ Detail page.
