In a provider letter to nursing facilities dated December 18, the Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) asked these facilities for help with providing personal representative information to the Medicaid Estate Recovery Program.
Although some providers fill out the personal representative information request form, others do not. From the letter:
The expectation is that once the Texas Integrated Eligibility Redesign System (TIERS), the new Medicaid database, is available statewide, MERP’s ability to obtain additional contact information on nursing facility recipients will be enhanced. Until that time, however, the program depends to a large extent on your cooperation and thanks you in advance for your support.
