A data exchange between SSA and DHCS started on a daily basis on January 1, 2010. Counties will receive two types of applications from SSA. The first will be LIS Extra Help applications where SSA has completed a determination of whether the individual is eligible for LIS Extra Help.The second are applications where the applicant self-assesses that they are apparently over the resource limit for LIS and they wish to have their information sent to the state to determine whether they are eligible for an MSP. The letter has extensive details on what data must be exchanged and what the counties are responsible for. [Download]
