Default Descending from MEA to land under VFR

In the regulations it says that you can land at an airport without an
IAP if you descend from the MEA and land under VFR, but if there is a
MOCA, can you use that instead?

Regulation or policy?

If the MOCA is within 22 miles of the VOR sure you can use it. Or, if
the center will provide the service you can use their MIA, if lowwer.

If the MOCA is not within 22 miles of the VOR but you have IFR-certified
GPS, a good case can be made you can use the MOCA regardless.
