What other governmental statutory lienholders exist besides Medicare and Medicaid?
In addition to Medicare and Medicaid, the LRA has been tasked with resolving the healthcare liens and obligations of other federal agencies with statutory liens. These include the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and TRICARE for Enrolling Claimants who are either retired or active military as well as Indian Health Services (IHS) for Native American Claimants. However, this does not include liens or obligations asserted by government employee health plans, which must be addressed separately (please see section entitled “ERISA, Private Insurance, and Other Liens” below).
