See SI 02302.050
The instructions in POMS SI 02302.050 require field offices (FO) to verify the use of Medicaid services paid by title XIX
(Medicaid) when the recipient alleges use within the past 12 months.
Since verification should be obtained from the agency or provider which can provide
it the fastest, every attempt should be made to get verification via the telephone
from a provider before writing to the Medicaid agency. If verification must be secured
from the Medicaid agency you may send a written request to the following State offices:
