Narrative:
I was the radar controller working the mgw sector. Aircraft X was en-route at 3;000 feet. The mia after air VOR changes from 3;000 to 3;400 feet a few miles before the ckb approach boundary. I coordinated twice with ckb approach to ensure that aircraft X could stay at 3;000 feet. Ckb approach confirmed this twice. I am still unsure however if I did anything wrong letting aircraft X fly 400 feet below the mia for 2-3 miles.I probably should have just climbed aircraft X to 3;400 feet; just to be safe.
