Abstract:
Civilian Health And Medical Program of the Department of Veterans Affairs (CHAMPVA) Benefits Forms are used by claimants to submit claims for reimbursement for medical care and by VA to determine benefits eligibility, process claims, detect fraud, and recover costs from third parties -- in accordance with 38 U.S.C. Sections 501 and 1781, and 10 U.S.C. Sections 1079 and 1086. VA Form 10-10d, Application for CHAMPVA Benefits, is used to determine eligibility of persons applying for healthcare benefits under the CHAMPVA program. VA Form 10-7959a, CHAMPVA Claim Form, is used to adjudicate claims for CHAMPVA benefits. The claim form also is instrumental in the detection and prosecution of fraud. VA Form 10-7959c, CHAMPVA Other Health Insurance (OHI) Certification, is used to systematically obtain OHI information and to correctly coordinate benefits among all liable parties. VA Form 10-7959d, CHAMPVA Potential Liability Claim, provides basic information from which potential liability can be assessed. VA Form 10-7959e, VA Claim for Miscellaneous Expenses, is used to adjudicate claims for certain children of Korea and/or Vietnam veterans authorized under 38 U.S.C., chapter 18, as amended by section 401, P.L. 106-419 and section 102, P.L. 108-183. The Clinical Review and Appeal Process regarding provision of health care for CHAMPVA, and Certain Children of Korea, Vietnam , and Thailand Veterans, is necessary to provide an appeals process that VA believes is appropriate as a matter of law and policy.
