TN 3 (09-26)
Follow State practice (e.g., investigating, recovery, and fixing pecuniary liability) when DDS equipment is lost or destroyed.
NOTE: State or private insurance settlements offered in whole or partial settlements of a loss are acceptable.
The DDS must advise Disability Adjudication (DA) regarding any loss or destruction of equipment. The notification should include a description of the equipment and impact to DDS operations.
The DDS must send DA supporting documentation which:
Describes the loss
Describes the actions taken by the State to resolve
Outlines final resolution
Includes signature of the State official empowered to make such a disposition.
NOTE: This statement will serve as supporting documentation until an audit has been conducted and resolved.
