reprisal, or because all or part of an individual’s income is derived from any public assistance program, you may file

I understand that by getting JUL or CHIP Medicaid benefits for myself and/or other persons, I automatically give HSD
all rights to medical support and to payment for medical care from a third party. A third party can include an absent
parent, an insurance company, or another person who must pay for medical care and services.

Identify any third parties who may have to pay for medical care and services.

good reason for not helping HSD.

I understand that all information I give to HSD is confidential. Information will only be used for eligibility purposes or to
provide services. By law, confidential information may be released to other agencies that manage federal programs.
The information you give HSD will be used to determine whether your household is eligible or continues to be eligible to take
part in HSD programs. We will check this information through computer matching programs. This information will also be
used to make sure that you meet program rules and help us to manage the program.
This information may be given to other Federal and State agencies for official examination, and to law enforcement officials
for the purpose of picking up persons fleeing to avoid the law.
If you get benefits that you were not eligible for and have to pay them back, this is called a claim. If your household gets a
claim against your household, the information on this application, including all Social Security Numbers, may be given to

Federal and State agencies, as well as private claims collection agencies, for claims collection action.
Providing the requested information, including social security numbers of each household member is voluntary. However,
each person applying for assistance must give a social security number or it will result in denial of program benefits to each
individual applicant failing to give a social security number. Non-citizen immigrants not requesting assistance for themselves
do not need to give immigration status information or social security numbers. Any social security numbers given will be
used and disclosed in the same manner as social security numbers of eligible household members.
We also check with other agencies, the Federal Income and Eligibility Verification Service (IEVS), and the public assistance
reporting information system (PARIS) about the information that you give us. This information may affect your household
eligibility and benefit amount.
