Contract Information Guide
Summary document that outlines the most important elements of the Master Agreement, Participating Addendum, and our TPL Recovery offerings.
Stellarware & the Medicaid Recovery Network
Stellarware is currently operating the Medicaid Recovery Network (MRN) in the states of Rhode Island and Texas, once again utilizing the successful working relationship with the insurance industry. The MRN program is fully supported and endorsed by the insurance industry, and is the foundation for the Medicaid Model Act, adopted at the National Conference of Insurance Legislators (NCOIL) in 2014, and readopted by the Property & Casualty Insurance Committee and Executive Committee in September 2020. The ground-breaking MRN system helps states identify Medicaid recipients early in the claim lifecycle and quickly and effectively recover medical costs from personal injury and workers' compensation insurance claims, recouping funds that can go directly back into state budgets.
Contract Particulars
Third Party Liability Recovery Services
Lead State: Georgia
Master Agreement Reference No: 99999-NVP-DCH0000120-0002
Agreement Term: 02/01/2022-12/31/2031
Awarded Service Areas
Casualty & Tort Subrogation
The Casualty & Tort Subrogation program assists Medicaid in recovering Medicaid expenditures from verified third parties who are liable to pay for medical expenses incurred due to trauma or accident-related injuries. Through the MRN program, Stellarware electronically matches Medicaid recipients with liability and workers' compensation claims allowing us to easily identify quality claims early on the claims life cycle and recover medical costs at the time of settlement.
Estate Recovery
Estate Recovery is a program for which Medicaid members with qualified assets reimburse the taxpayers for long term care, and home and community-based services provided through Medicaid. Using a data match with Vital Records, nursing home information, city and town probate information which has been reported, questionnaires, information from the state MMIS system, applications, and other information, we will determine if the Medicaid recipient has an estate and proceed to notify the state so the appropriate estate claim or lien process can be followed.
Trust Programs
A qualifying trust is an income trust whereby the State is the beneficiary of the balance on the account upon the member's death. An income trust is used when an individual has too much income to qualify for Medicaid but not enough to pay for nursing home care or other long-term care costs. Under the trust programs including Special Needs Trust (SNT), Miller Trusts, or Pooled Trusts, Stellarware can pursue the balance remaining in the qualified trust for the benefit of the state.
STABLE/ABLE
The State Treasury Achieving A Better Life Experience (STABLE) Program allows investment accounts for disabled individuals without impacting Medicaid eligibility. The individual will be able to withdraw and spend their money as needed. The STABLE account allows the individual to grow his/her money and save long-term for disability expenses. Stellarware will work with the state agency to establish recovery case files on STABLE/ABLE accounts including outreach, follow up, and collections to assert the state's right to recovery.
HIPP
Under the Health Insurance Premium Payment (HIPP) program, the State pays the group health insurance premiums for Medicaid eligible individuals, if the insurance plans are determined to be cost effective. Stellarware will work side by side with the state to identify all program requirements including identification, outreach, and evaluation to maintain a successful and effective HIPP program on behalf of the state.
CHIPRA
The Children's Health Insurance Program Re-Authorization Act (CHIPRA) offers opportunities for the State to provide premium assistance to children under age 19, who are eligible for Medicaid, and who have access to qualified employer-sponsored coverage. Stellarware will work in partnership with the state to administer a CHIPRA program to fit the state's needs.
