Additional Verification Questions Question Response 1 If paper documentation is required when a data source is not available or the information obtained from a data source is not reasonably compatible with the information provided by or on behalf of the individual, briefly describe how the state determined that establishing and using an electronic data source was not effective, considering such factors as cost and program integrity in accordance with 42 CFR 435.952(c): State plans to use multiple backup data sources before requesting documentation when information from data sources are inconsistent with the individual's attestation. 2 Please describe how the state uses PARIS? Connecticut receives a quarterly PARIS report indicating individuals that are receiving Medicaid benefits in other states. An evaluation is done and a determination is made to establish if an individual will maintain eligibility for Medicaid benefits in Connecticut, as well as other State and federal benefit programs. 3 Please indicate (YES) or (NO) if the State intends to request Secretarial approval to solely use alternative data sources for financial verification other than those listed in 42 CFR 435.948 (Numbers 1-8 in Section B-1).
