Verify mandatory and questionable items at application, review, person addition or deletion, or when there is a change in circumstance that affects eligibility or benefit level. Do not reverify one time only verification items.
The time period for processing an application for MA is 30 days. Advise the applicant of the specific verifications required within the 30 day processing time. Give the applicant at least ten days to provide any necessary verification.
Do not deny the group for failure to provide the required verification until the:
11th day after requesting verification, or
31st day of the application or review processing period, whichever is later.
If you request verification more than ten days prior to the 30th day you must still allow the applicant the full 30 days to provide the required verification.
Advise the recipient of the specific verification required and allow a minimum of ten days to provide it.
