Rhode Island EOHHS Announcement
February 2013
MAIS recently mailed a letter on behalf of RI EOHHS to licensed property and casualty insurance companies, which were found on the Rhode Island Insurance Commissioner's website.
Every domestic insurer or insurance company authorized to issue policies of liability insurance and any workers' compensation insurer shall review information provided by the Executive Office of Health and Human Services, pursuant to R.I.G.L. chapter 27-57.1, indicating whether or not the claimant has received Medicaid funded services as a result of an accident or loss, which is the basis of the claim. The review shall occur within thirty (30) days prior to making any payment equal to or in excess of five hundred dollars ($500.00) to any claimant who is a resident of Rhode Island, for personal injury or workers' compensation benefits under a contract of insurance.
