NEW ELIGIBILITY SYSTEM KNOWN ISSUES

APPLICATION CASE
CASE NUMBER DISPLAYS AS ********
A case number may display as ******** due to a security issue. Contact the MMIS User Services Help Desk with
the applicants full name. They will attempt to resolve the issue.
UNABLE TO AUTHORIZE
If unable to authorize an application case, determine if there are duplicate people on the case. If there are
duplicates, contact the client to verify the correct identifying information (full name, date of birth, SSN, etc.) for
the duplicated member(s). Contact the MMIS User Services Help Desk for further assistance.
(JIRA 2188)

BASIS OF ELIGIBILITY
CHILDREN AGE 19-20
Children age 19-20 are being identified in the Adults category on the Streamlined Medicaid eligibility
determination. Display the basis of eligibility category by clicking the Coverage Period on the Determinations
tab of the Streamlined Medicaid Product Delivery Case. Contact MMIS User Services Help Desk to have these
children correctly identified in MMIS. There is not currently a process for changing the display in MNSure.
(JIRA 2348)

CASE CLOSING
Medical Assistance and MinnesotaCare cases cannot be closed at this time. For MinnesotaCare, the system may
begin closing clients for non-payment of premiums beginning May 2014. Advise enrollees who want MinnesotaCare
closed that they should not pay premiums for the months they do not want coverage.
(JIRA 2527)

CASE OWNERSHIP
CHANGING CASE OWNERSHIP TO A CASE BANKING WORK QUEUE
There is an issue of bounce back when an agency (county, tribal and MinnesotaCare Operations staff)
attempts to change ownership of an integrated case and product delivery case from the servicing agency queue
to a case banking queue. If this occurs, verify that the Integrated Case is transferred first. The Product Delivery
Case should not be transferred before the Integrated Case.
If that does not resolve the issue, change ownership of both cases to an individual in the agency. Then, change
the ownership to the case-banking queue.
CASE TRANSFER
TRANSFERRING A CASE BETWEEN COUNTIES
The Transfer Wizard used for transferring cases between counties is not working at this time. The MMIS User
Services Help Desk cannot resolve this issue. There is currently no system functionality to transfer cases
between counties. Please track these cases until further notice.

incorrect, advise the client to appeal the decision.

MMIS INTERFACE
MMIS INFORMATION IS INCORRECT
If the data in MMIS is incorrect, please verify that the data in MNSure is correct. This may include contacting the
client to verify information. Contact the MMIS User Services Help Desk to have data updated.
Incorrect data may include (but is not limited to):
Incorrect eligibility begin or end dates in MMIS
Incorrect program in MMIS
Incorrect household membership
Household members missing from MMIS
NO ELIGIBILITY DISPLAYED IN MMIS
If a person is eligible in MNSure but there is no MMIS span, verify that the person has MA or MinnesotaCare
eligibility in MNSure. Enrollees only enrolled in Qualified Health Plans (APTC/Unassisted QHP) will not have
eligibility reflected in MMIS. Enrollees in MinnesotaCare will not have an eligibility span in MMIS until the initial
premium is paid. If MA eligibility is not appearing in MMIS after 24 hours, contact the MMIS User Services Help
Desk.
MSA RECIPIENTS
Applicants/enrollees receiving MSA are automatically eligible for MA. The new eligibility system was programmed
to deny Streamlined Medicaid to people who report they are receiving MSA. Verify in MAXIS whether the person is
receiving MSA.
If the person is receiving MSA, follow existing processes to determine health care eligibility in MAXIS. Authorize
ineligible results in the new eligibility system.
If the person is not receiving MSA, contact the MMIS User Services Help Desk.
(JIRA 2197)

PRODUCT DELIVERY CASE

PRODUCT DELIVERY CASE DOES NOT EXIST
Review case notes if an Integrated Case exists, but there is no Product Delivery Case. Cases in the stuck cases
project have been identified in case notes. DHS is working on fixing these cases. They do not need to be
reported. If the case has not been identified as a stuck case, please contact the MMIS User Services Help Desk.

VERIFICATIONS
CASES PENDING FOR VERIFICATION
For applications received prior to 3/1/2014. MNSure is incorrectly pending eligibility for adults who qualify for

Unassisted QHP.
Worker Action: Clear verifications. Authorize the application for MinnesotaCare, APTC or QHP Unassisted as
appropriate.
