(a) The board may disapprove an application if it is determined that the children to be covered under the application were covered by an individual health care service plan contract or individual disability insurance policy during a specified period of time prior to the date of application only if required by the federal government for state plan approval. This time limitation period shall not exceed the time period required by the federal government.

(b) If the board imposes the time limitation identified in subdivision (a), it shall also establish exceptions to this limitation in cases where the prior coverage ended due to reasons unrelated to the availability of the program. This shall include, but not be limited to, the prior coverage being pursuant to a health plan operating pursuant to an exemption authorized by subdivision (i) of Section 1367 of the Health and Safety Code.
