6.1.6 MATCH SYSTEM

ERP maintains the Estate Recovery Database.  Information you submit on the Estate Recovery Disclosure Form and data received through the SSA State Data Exchange ( SDX ) tape (for SSI/MA clients) is on the database.

 

The database is compared to the death record files of the Division of Health Care Financing, Vital Records and State Registrar Section.

 

When a match shows an MA client or his/her surviving spouse has died, a report record is produced.  ERP staff check the report against lists of new probate proceedings sent monthly by county registers in probate.  This is a back up to the requirement that DHFS be notified of the last date for filing claims.
