Notes
G = Generic			PB = Preferred Brand Name			NPB = Non-Preferred Brand Name
Percentages are of monthly benefits or income
SSI/Med applies SSI percentage of income to median income
K-TAP/Med applies K-TAP percentage of income to median income
Observations
For a K-TAP recipient with ongoing RX of 2 G and 1 PB, a non-emergency ER episode would create total cost of almost 20% of monthly income
For an aged or disabled SSI recipient, the same episode would cost 8.3% of monthly income
If median income Kentuckians were charged the same % of income, charges would be a significant proportion of the fee for service
