Description

2011 Kansas SSP payment values: https://www.ssa.gov/policy/docs/progdesc/ssi_st_asst/2011/ks.html

These values appear to have remained in effect for 2017-2019.

This report shows that the program has been in effect since July 1, 2006. It also provides that the state supplementation amount "shall not be less than $30" for eligible individuals residing in Medicaid facilities.

Additionally, the 2011 SSA payment values page states that the Kansas SSP program has been in effect since July 1, 2006, so the 2011 values appear to remain applicable for 2017–2019.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Locate the Kansas SSP payment parameter definitions and existing historical-year tests or entry points, then compare their 2017–2019 values with the cited 2011 SSA page and Kansas source. Done means the applicable Kansas SSP values are represented for all three years and the relevant tests pass.
