Qualified Individual Definition
 
Qualified Individual (QI) is a Medicare Savings Program (MSP) administered by AHCCCS. To be eligible for QI, the participant must have gross income (minus a $20 standard deduction) between 100% and 135% of the current FPL.
 
AHCCCS assists QI eligible participants with the payment of Medicare Part B premiums. This is referred to as "buy-in."
