Summary

Session
Regular Session 2019
Title
Estates, probate court proceedings, notice requirements to Alabama Medicaid Agency, provided, probate proceedings, further provided
Description

Under existing federal law, the Medicaid Agency must administer an estate recovery program.

Medicaid currently does not receive all required notices at the commencement of probate proceedings.

This bill would require specific notice to Medicaid at the commencement of a probate proceeding and would bar payments of claims in the sixth order of preference as well as summary distributions until proof of such notice has been filed and Medicaid has timely responded to the notice. This bill would also provide a uniform mechanism for Medicaid to commence probate proceedings around the state.
