Presumptive eligibility is a process that allows qualified hospitals and qualified entities to determine if an individual can get short-term Medicaid. It provides individuals with Medicaid coverage while HHSC processes their application for regular Medicaid.
Some hospitals, clinics, and other health care centers participate in Presumptive Eligibility (PE). They are able to make temporary Medicaid eligibility determinations for very low income adults, children, parents, pregnant women, and former foster care children.
