Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Delaware Division of Medicaid and Medical Assistance (DMMA) operates six offices throughout the state that are responsible for processing applications and redeterminations for Medicaid. Applicants for, and current recipients of, Medicaid must authorize DMMA to obtain verification from any Financial Institution (FI) whenever the state determines the record is needed in connection with respect to eligibility for medical assistance. Current FI verification processes are administratively manual. FI verification request forms are mailed or faxed to FIs to verify assets for a sixty (60) month lookback period, as determined by the state. DMMA eligibility staff examines returned verification request forms to determine if the applicant or recipient meets Medicaid asset criteria. In the event that an FI fails to return, or is unable to complete the FI verification request form, the applicant or recipient may be required to provide verification for use in determining eligibility for the Medicaid.
