People enrolled in or applying for Medical Assistance for People Who Are Age 65 or Older and People Who Are Blind or Have a Disability (MA-ABD) have begun to receive Account Validation Service (AVS) authorization forms in the mail. Lead agencies should work with applicants/enrollees to make sure they complete this form. If they do not, their MA eligibility will be terminated.
