Universal Citation: LA Admin Code XIII-501
Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 3, March 20, 2024
A. Only verified expenses can be reimbursed.
B. Verification of Claimed Expenses
1. Each type of claim form used by the board
should identify the documents that must be submitted by the victim/claimant to
support and verify a claimed expense.
2. When applications lack documentation
necessary for a decision or award in total or in part, and adequate effort has
been made to acquire that information, the application will be placed on an
agenda and the decision and award will be based on that information available.
Should the formerly sought information become available, a supplemental
application can be filed.
C. Awards to eligible victims or claimants for expenses incurred but not yet paid may be made payable directly to the providers.
D. All checks to providers when paid at less than the full balance owing are marked "paid in full."
E. If a provider refuses a board check, the check will be reissued to the claimant for the same amount as approved.
F. In those instances in which:
1. an application has been approved for
an award; and
2. payment is being
made directly to the provider; and
3. the check either has not been sent or has
not been negotiated by the provider; and
4. the claimant notifies the board that he
has paid the bill, upon verification and return of the check, the check will be
voided and reissued for the same amount to the claimant.
