How can an LEA verify a students eligibility for medical assistance?
A. Eligibility may be verified by any one of the following: • Ask to see the student’s Medicaid or All Kids eligibility card. • Use HFS’ Medical Electronic Data Interchange • Access HFS’ Automated Voice Response System by calling 1-800-842-1461 (toll free). You will need the following information to utilize the system: • Your 12-digit provider number; • The recipient number for the student you are verifying; • The date of service as an 8-digit number (February 15, 2000, would be entered as 02152000). • Contact the Department of Human Services office in your community.
