Notes: 

Data as of December 2009.
With the exception of Arkansas, all states with an asset test for pregnancy coverage rely on a standard limit regardless of family size. In Arkansas, the asset limit is as shown for a family of three.

Sources: 

A Foundation for Health Reform: Findings of a 50 State Survey of Eligibility Rules, Enrollment and Renewal Procedures, and Cost-Sharing Practices in Medicaid and CHIP for Children and Parents During 2009. Data based on a national survey conducted by the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities for the Kaiser Commission on Medicaid and the Uninsured, December 2009. Available at http://www.kff.org/medicaid/7855.cfm. 2009 HHS Poverty Guidelines: http://aspe.hhs.gov/poverty/09poverty.shtml.

Footnotes: 
  1. In Iowa, the asset limit only applies to regular Medicaid and only considers liquid assets. The state expanded income eligibility for pregnant women from 200 to 300 percent of the federal poverty line in July 2009.
  2. In Utah, women who exceed the asset limit may still qualify for coverage if they make a one-time payment of four percent of the value of their assets or $3,367, whichever is less.
