Can states limit the scope of benefits for particular groups of individuals in the PE period?

In general, for individuals determined eligible under hospital PE, the benefits provided are the same as those provided under the eligibility group for which PE is determined. See 42 CFR 435.1103(a) and (c)(1)(ii), which specifies that covered benefits for pregnant women during a PE period are limited to ambulatory prenatal care, and benefits covered under family planning PE are limited to family planning services.
