What is needed from an attorney or claim adjuster to release the amount Medicaid paid for medical treatment to a recipient who was involved in a vehicular accident?
• Medicaid needs a letter of representation from the attorney. The claim adjuster may send a written request. Requestors must also send a HIPAA Authorization signed by the recipient, parent, or legal guardian if a minor, permitting the release of information. These statements may be faxed to the Department of Health, Medical Assistance Administration, Third Party Liability Section at (202) 442-4799.
