Mr. Fred Gervin has an excluded burial fund of $1,785. In 10/90 he is ineligible due
to excess income (N01). For the period 10/90 through 2/91 he is ineligible due to
excess resources (N04). In 3/91, when he is again eligible, his excluded burial fund
is now valued at $1,838.
Treatment - The whole burial fund,including interest earned, remained excluded during the period
of suspension.
If Mr. Gervin had used $50 of the burial account to buy groceries in 1/91, the exclusion
would have ended effective 2/1/91 and he would have to reestablish the exclusion as
if it had never existed. The previously excluded interest would be a countable resource
effective with the resource determination for 3/91 (the month he again becomes eligible
for payment).
