Effective July 1, 2003 through June 30, 2004, the family-member base allocation amount for a family member living with the community spouse of a Medi-Cal beneficiary in Long Term Care is $1515. The family-member maximum base allocation amount is used to determine how much money the LTC beneficiary may allocate to family members for the purpose of reducing the share of cost.
