MAGI-BASED ELIGIBILITY VERIFICATION PLAN (Insert Medicaid, CHIP, or Both) Medicaid & CHIP State: Oklahoma Last updated: 07/13/2016 Section D. 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): The OHCA exhausts all electronic data sources available; paper documentation may be requested only if the information received from the electronic data sources is inconsistent with the attestation that would have an impact on eligibility AND/OR a reasonable explanation cannot be obtained from the member. The state utilizes self-attestation with post-enrollment verification for many factors of eligibility and utilizes many back-up data sources when inconsistencies are found from the primary data source used. 2 Please describe how the state uses PARIS? The OHCA submits a match file twice a year, February and August, to the DOD to conduct an interstate match to determine whether that universe of members receives concurrent benefits in Oklahoma and another state. It is also useful for detecting fraud or improper payment based on residency status. 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).
