The New York Independent Assessor (NYIA) has posted an "Information Sharing Consent Form" for you to authorize release of health information to NYIA.

You can also designate an authorized representative who may act on your behalf when interacting with NYIA.

2022-02-04 Changes to LDSS-3183 Provider or MLTC Plan & Recipient Letter.pdf
A Medicaid Recipient who submits medical bills from a Provider to meet the spenddown will receive an OHIP-3183 “Provider/Recipient Letter” indicating which medical expenses are the responsibility of the Recipient (and which the Provider should not bill to Medicaid). When the Recipient is enrolled with a Managed Long Term Care Plan (MLTC), the Recipient and the MLTC will receive an OHIP-0128 “MLTC/Recipient Letter” indicating the amount that the Recipient owes to the MLTC (after deducting the medical expenses/bills from the spenddown). These forms replace the LDSS-3183 form.
