Fill out and sign the application. Use blue or black ink. Please be truthful. If you are helping someone else, answer the questions for that person.

RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES – READ AND KEEP THIS SHEET INFORMATION FOR ADULTS AND CHILDREN APPLYING FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE • I understand I assume full responsibility for the accuracy of the statements on this form. I understand the Department of
Human Services (DHS) will use this statement to determine my eligibility for Medical Assistance. • I understand my eligibility will not be affected by my race, creed, color, national origin, age, disability, or sex, except where
this is restricted by law. • I understand that I have the right to a hearing if this application is denied or not acted upon promptly or if services granted
are terminated, reduced, or suspended. I understand that I can get a hearing by making a request in writing to my local DHS office and that I may represent myself or use a lawyer, relative, friend, or other spokesperson.
• I am aware that my case may be picked by the Department for a complete Quality Control or other review of my eligibility for assistance. If my case is selected for verification, I will cooperate fully in the verification. I hereby authorize all persons to release confidential information concerning my eligibility to a DHS reviewer. I understand that failure to cooperate with such a review can result in denial or cancellation of benefits.
• I will notify DHS within ten days of any changes in medical benefits or health insurance coverage. In addition, I understand that I am to notify my medical providers (doctors, pharmacist, etc.) if another party may be liable to pay my medical expenses. I will notify DHS within ten days if I file an insurance claim or retain an attorney to seek payment for injuries and medical expenses resulting from those injuries that otherwise would be paid by Medicaid. Failure to comply with my responsibilities can give the Department cause to deny or terminate Medicaid eligibility.
• I agree to assign medical payments from a third party to the Medicaid agency for myself and others who are eligible for Medicaid, for whom, I legally can assign benefits. I also agree to cooperate in obtaining medical payments from third parties.
• I understand that I am to reimburse the Department for any money paid to me or paid to a provider on my behalf to which I was not entitled.
• I further understand that the Department will provide documents or claim forms describing the services paid by Medicaid upon my request or the request of an attorney acting on my behalf. Such documents may also be provided to a third party when necessary to establish the extent of the Department's claim for reimbursement.
• I understand that federal and state law and rules permit access by authorized federal and state officials to Medicaid providers' records. I also fully understand that my acceptance of Medicaid is my consent for these authorized persons to have access to my medical and health care records during the time I am eligible for Medicaid, as necessary to verify appropriate Medicaid payment.
• I give my permission to tell my medical providers the status for my Medically Needy case, including the amount of my spenddown and their bills used to meet spenddown, or when a premium is due for Medicaid for Employed People with Disabilities.
• If I become enrolled in a managed health care plan, I consent to disclosure of medical information, including any clinical mental health or substance abuse information, by my medical providers to the HMO, PHP, other managed care providers or to the authorized administrative body contracted by the managed care provider to determine appropriateness, quality, or utilization of services I received while enrolled in managed health care.
• I understand that if Medical Assistance is approved, support payments intended for medical costs must be assigned and paid to the Department of Human Services to the extent of the benefits I receive. I understand that the Department may intervene, according but not limited to, Iowa Code Chapters 252A, 252B, 252C, 252D, 598, and 600B, to make claim and secure support from any person or party who may be responsible for my support or that of my children. I understand that if I receive Medicaid, the Department will pursue non-medical support for myself and my children upon my request. Medical support services include the establishment of paternity and the establishment and enforcement of medical support.
• I am aware that Section 1128B of the Social Security Act provides federal penalties for fraudulent acts and false reporting. Anyone who obtains, or tries to obtain, or helps any other person to obtain public assistance to which the person is not entitled is guilty of violating the laws of the state of Iowa. These laws include, but are not limited to, Iowa Code Chapters 243, 239B, 249A, and 249A.
• I understand and agree that I will need to provide the Department with either documentation from the Citizenship and Immigration Service (CIS) or other documents the Department considers to be proof of the immigration status of each person in my household who is not a United States citizen or national. I understand that alien status may be subject to verification with CIS, which will require submission of certain information from this application form to CIS. I further understand that information received from CIS may affect my household's eligibility and level of benefits.
• If I filled out a separate application for food assistance and that application was referred to the Food Stamp Investigation Unit, I will cooperate with the investigation in order to receive Medicaid when the investigation involves income, resources and household composition that affect my Medicaid eligibility.
• I understand that the facts I give determine financial eligibility. A medical certification is also needed prior to approval for certain Medical Assistance programs. To determine medical certification, the Iowa Medicaid Enterprise (IME) Medical Services may need to contact my physician. I authorize my physician or health care provider to release information to IME Medical Services for this purpose. I agree to allow DHS to disclose the filing of this application to my nursing facility in order to obtain the level of care determination necessary for eligibility. A copy of this form received by fax will be given the same effect as the original.
MORE INFORMATION FOR ADULTS APPLYING FOR MEDICAL ASSISTANCE • I will notify the LOCAL DHS office of any change in my information on this application, including but not limited to,
anticipated income or property such as an inheritance, lump-sum payments on delinquent child support, or any change in income or living arrangements of myself or any other member of my family. If I have any doubt whether a particular change in circumstances is information that must be reported, I shall report this to my LOCAL office no later than ten days from the date the change occurs. I also understand that I am to pay back to the Department any money received by me or paid to a vendor on my behalf to which I was not entitled.
• I understand payments under the Medical Insurance Program (Part B of Medicare) will be made directly to the physicians and medical suppliers on any future unpaid bills for medical and other health services furnished me while eligible for Medicaid.
• I authorize the DHS to share information from this application, and information about my condition from the designated Assessment Tool with IME Medical Services for all home and community based service (HCBS) waivers and the Area Agency on Aging Case Management Team for my HCBS elderly waiver services
• If you made the State of Iowa a remainder beneficiary on an annuity, in order to qualify for Medicaid payment of long-term care, the State of Iowa will get any benefits remaining in the annuity, up to the amount of Medicaid benefits paid.
INFORMATION FOR THOSE APPLYING FOR WIC OR MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH SERVICES • I understand that a declaration of income and persons in my family and living in my household is necessary to ensure that
federal and state funds are directed to those persons least able to secure services from other sources. • I understand that the Maternal and Child Health Director of the Iowa Department of Public Health, the WIC Director, or their
designees shall have access to all information available from records maintained by the agency providing maternal health, child health, or WIC services.

How will I know if I get a hearing?
You will get a hearing notice that tells you the date and time a telephone hearing is scheduled. You will get a letter telling you if you do not get a hearing. This letter will tell you why you did not get a hearing. It will also explain what you can do if you disagree with the decision to not give you a hearing.
Can I have someone else help me in the hearing?
You or someone else, such as a friend or relative can tell why you disagree with the Department’s decision. You may also have a lawyer help you, but the Department will not pay for one.

of the value. You must also provide a complete copy of your burial contract that indicates

company to obtain the necessary information.
Property Sold on Contract - Client will need to provide a complete copy of the contract itself
and the amortization table. The Fair Market Value of the contract will need to be submitted. If
the client is unable to provide proof of FMV of the contract, then the amount currently owed
on the contract would be considered the Fair Market Value.
Promissory Notes and Loans- The client will need to provide a copy of the note/loan. This will
need to include the amortization table showing breakdown of principal and interest. The client
can also provide proof of fair market value from three dis-interested third parties as to the
value of the loan or note if sold. If they are unable to or do not provide fair market value then
the amount owed will be the resource value.

cash surrender value of any retirement funds. If the client has to quit their job to withdraw the
funds then they will not be counted as a resource.

market value of all vehicles. If they cannot obtain verification of the value then they can provide
year, make, model, mileage and condition of vehicle and the IM worker will refer to NADA or
KBB for the values. Unless otherwise requested the department will exclude the vehicle with
the highest value.
Burial Space – The client will need to provide a statement as to how many burial spaces they
own and who they are for. If the spaces are not for immediate family then the client will need
to provide proof of fair market value of the spaces that are not intended for family.

and proof of the fair market value of the life estate or remainderman interest. If they cannot
obtain fair market value of the life estate/remainderman interest then the department will use
the life estate chart provided in policy manual 8-D. (Please note: if the property is farm land the
fair market value provided will need to be in price per acre)
Updated 4/30/14
What is a burial contract?
A burial contract is an agreement with
a funeral home in which a person pre-
pays for funeral expenses.
How is a burial contract counted
in determining eligibility for
Medicaid?
There are some circumstances in
which a burial contract is not counted
as a resource for Medicaid. In order
to be excluded as a resource a prepaid
burial contract must be an irrevocable
contract and the applicant or member
must be unable to access the funds.
In addition there must be a contract
with a funeral home. In other words,
you must purchase something for
your money. You may not simply put
money in an irrevocable account. This
would be considered a transfer of
assets for less than fair market value
which results in a period of
ineligibility for Medicaid.
How can a burial contract be
funded?
A burial contract can be funded by a
number of ways. The most common
ways include assigning ownership of a
life insurance policy to a funeral
home, setting up a trust at a bank
which can be funded by a certificate of
deposit of another form.
If I have a burial contract what
information do I need to
provide?
If you have a burial contract you will
be asked to provide verification of the
contract to your Department of
Human Services IM worker.
If you have a life insurance policy
funding a burial contract you will
need to provide verification of the face
value and cash value of the life
insurance policy as well as verification
of the owner and beneficiary of the
policy.
If you have burial trusts, CDs, or other
funds set aside for your burial, you
will need to provide verification of the
value.
You must also provide a complete
copy of your burial contract that
indicates whether the contract is
revocable or irrevocable.
What amount can be funded for
burial?
The average cost of a funeral in Iowa
is $11,566. If the amount funding
your burial contract exceeds $11,566
you will need to provide a statement
of goods and services verifying what
was purchased. The Department will
also need to review the contract for
any possible transfer of assets.
What if I have questions?
If you have questions about what to
provide you can call the DHS facility
unit at 877-344-9628.
