SSDI Income Disregard - Support
 
?Disregarding the SSDI income above SSI is a win all around. It's a win for disabled Medicaid-funded waiver recipients who can work at a meaningful-life job and not lose their benefits after a parent retires or dies. The state would get more federal dollars through increased Patient Pay. Group home providers would benefit from a portion of an individual's work income. This is a great change for disabled Virginians that I fully support.
