Section 510. Pregnant-woman coverage

7 AAC 45.510. Pregnant-woman coverage

(a) As provided in this section, the department will, during the last 91 days of pregnancy, including the estimated day of delivery, pay ATAP benefits to a pregnant woman who has no other children receiving ATAP benefits.

(b) The department will determine eligibility as if the child had been born, considering the income and resources of all individuals in the household who will be included in the economic unit and assistance unit when the child is born. If the department finds that eligibility exists for this assistance unit, it will determine the payment amount under 7 AAC 45.525 using only the pregnant woman's own countable income and applying the pregnant-woman need standard of 7 AAC 45.520(a) (4).

(e) If a pregnant woman is unmarried and living with a man who claims to be the father of the unborn child, the department will require, as a condition of ATAP eligibility, the unborn child's father to acknowledge paternity by signing a form provided by the department.

(f) If a pregnant woman is married at the time of conception, the department will consider the spouse at the time of conception to be the unborn child's father unless

(1) paternity has been determined otherwise by a court, administrative agency, or quasi-judicial entity authorized by law to determine parentage; or

(2) affidavits that meet the requirements of AS 18.50.160 (d)(2) and (g) are submitted to the department.
