(1) Except as provided in (2) below, an otherwise eligible individual must make a monthly cost share fee in accordance with the table in (3) below, as a condition of eligibility for benefits under the Medicaid for Workers with Disabilities program. The payment is based on the gross income of the individual only, not the individual's family income.
