Community Spouse Resource Allowance

The Community Spouse Resource Allowance (CSRA) is the amount of nonexempt assets that the community (or well) spouse is entitled to keep without affecting the ill-spouse's Medicaid eligibility.  The CSRA is currently$109,560 for Year 2010.  This amount is adjusted every January.

Depending upon the circumstances, the CSRA may be adjusted to meet the Well-Spouse's Minimum Monthly Maintenance Income Allowance.
