Note: After the MBI potential eligibility EDG is disposed, Form TF0001, Notice of Case Action, is automatically generated. Do not send the TF0001 to the applicant as the system-generated notice has incorrect information.  Suppress the TF0001 and send a manual Form H0053. The Form H0053 provides instructions on how MBI recipients send in their first premium payment.
 

Denials

Form TF0001 is automatically generated and sent to batch when an MBI EDG is denied. Staff must confirm the Form TF0001 includes the correct MBI denial reason. If the incorrect reason is listed, manually add the correct reason for denial in the comments section before generating the Form TF0001. 

Case in Ongoing Mode (Approved or Denied)

Form H0054, is used to notify a recipient of receipt of their premium payment, months of coverage and premium amount received.
