Special Processing at Evidence Activation

Previously the Long Term Care program had system processing functionality that was triggered when evidence is activated and before eligibility was checked. This functionality checked whether or not the evidence suggested that the institutionalized individual should be sanctioned for transferring assets specifically in order to qualify for Long Term Care coverage. This processing has been removed. The concern was that if initial evidence entered was incorrect, it was not easy to reverse or correct a sanction once created. Now invalid resource transfers are created by the eligibility rules which can modify the sanction/period of ineligibility as necessary.
