Records Access Authority Sample Clauses

Records Access Authority. Federal rules require Medicaid providers to provide access to medical records upon request by any state or federal government agency conducting a Medicaid audit or investigation. Medicaid recipients and applicants sign a waiver of privacy rights to their Medicaid records for purposes of administering the Medicaid program. By signing this agreement, PROVIDER agrees to provide reasonable access to all requested records relevant to claims submitted for services furnished under any medical assistance programs for auditing and investigative purposes by DEPARTMENT, internal auditors and others. Under extraordinary circumstances as defined in this agreement, PROVIDER agrees to furnish DEPARTMENT with immediate access to records. In such cases, DEPARTMENT shall, at a minimum, disclose to PROVIDER that (1) a request for immediate access is an extraordinary request and (2) that the differences between reasonable access and immediate access are explained in the Provider Agreement. In each case DEPARTMENT shall fully document the extraordinary circumstances that justify the request for immediate access and why no other less intrusive method of obtaining the records was reasonably available. Access to records by the State Medicaid Fraud Control Unit (MFCU) is governed by applicable state and federal law, including 42 CFR 1001.1301 which sets forth (1) the information that must be included in a reasonable, written request for documents and (2) defines immediate access for the MFCU and the circumstances under which it must be given. DEPARTMENT may not permit a member of the MFCU to state, suggest, or imply that the member is acting on behalf of DEPARTMENT in conducting an audit or investigation unless the audit or investigation is in fact at the request and under the direct supervision and oversight of DEPARTMENT.
