An applicant/recipient is responsible for establishing his/her eligibility for medicaid. As part of this responsibility, the applicant/recipient must provide required information and documents or take the actions necessary to establish eligibility. Failure to do so must result in a decision that eligibility does not exist. An applicant/recipient must also grant the human services department (HSD) permission to contact other persons, agencies or sources of information which are necessary to establish eligibility.
