When applying for an ObamaPlan on the 404Care.gov website, one is required to provide certain information, including date(s) of birth, Social Security number(s), and the like. This is then matched against other government databases for confirmation.
But what if you (or the person helping you) enters incorrect information?
Well, this may be of help (via email from CMMS):
"The information consumers provide when applying for Marketplace coverage is used to determine whether they are eligible for coverage and, possibly, financial assistance. In some cases, the information on a consumer’s application may be different from the Marketplace’s trusted data sources, including the Social Security Administration, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Internal Revenue Service ... The Marketplace may require a consumer to provide documentation to resolve this inconsistency or DMI [Data Matching Issue]"
And how, precisely can this be done?
So glad you asked:
Your tax-dollars at work!
