This file contains the threshold amounts for the Medication Copayment Income Exemption.  The Medication Copayment Income Exemption
legislation was effective on 30-Oct-92.  The thresholds are normally effective on December 1.  To simplify implementation VACO has
determined that the threshold effective 1-Dec-92 would be used for the period from 30-Oct-92 to 1-Dec-92.  
 
The Medication Copayment Income Exemption from 1992 thru 11/30/96 was based on veterans making less than the VBA rate for pension
plus Aid and Attendence.  
 
With the filing of the 1996 thresholds,  the directive was changed to reflect that the Medication Copayment Income Exemption was to
be based on veterans making less than the VBA rate for Basic Pension.  This is the directive that is still in effect for current
rates.  
 
 
 
 
Per VHA Directive 10-93-142, this file definition should not be modified.
