Iowa Code r. 481-70.36 - Identification of veteran's benefit eligibility
(1) Within 30 days of a participant's
participation in an adult day services program that receives reimbursement
through the medical assistance program under Iowa Code chapter 249A, the
program shall ask the participant or the participant's personal representative
whether the participant is a veteran or whether the participant is the spouse,
widow or dependent of a veteran and shall document the response.
(2) If the program determines that the
participant may be a veteran or the spouse, widow, or dependent of a veteran,
the program shall report the participant's name along with the name of the
veteran, if applicable, as well as the name of the contact person for this
information, to the Iowa department of veterans affairs. When appropriate, the
program may also report such information to the Iowa department of human
services.
(3) If a participant is
eligible for benefits through the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or other
third-party payor, the program first shall seek reimbursement from the
identified payor source before seeking reimbursement from the medical
