Text of Recommendation | We recommend that the New York State Department of Health strengthen its procedures for determining whether an individual applying for Medicaid has already been assigned a Medicaid ID number by ensuring that: - its system queries identify all individuals with existing Medicaid ID numbers and - local district and Marketplace staff follow guidance on identifying individuals with Medicaid ID numbers and use all available resources to identify and prevent the issuance of multiple Medicaid ID numbers to the same individual. |
