307.09 How to Verify SR 95-11, 03/95 (FAM-A)

Medical Assistance: Contact the institution to verify an individual’s residence in an institution, but only when it is a factor of eligibility.

When individuals must reapply for benefits after 30 days, but within 60 days, of admission to a public institution, use the same verification as for reapplications.

When individuals update their eligibility status, verify only changed factors affecting eligibility. Verify within 10 calendar days. When requesting verification directly from a third party, allow an additional 10 days.

Designated Receiving Facilities — The Division of Mental Health and Developmental Disabilities must provide a signed and dated statement of the anticipated length of hospitalization.
