Legal Complaint/Action Against a Third Party
Let Wisconsin Medicaid
Know When a Legal Complaint Is Filed
Sections 49.89, 102.27(2)(b), and 803.03, Wis. Stats., and SCR
20:1.15 and 20:8.4(f) require the attorney to contact Wisconsin
Medicaid when a claim is filed against a third party or
an insurance company/policy.
The Department of Justice handles civil cases for
Supplemental Security Income (SSI)
clients with a subrogation lien over $2000 and Office of Legal Counsel
handles civil cases for SSI clients with a subrogation lien under
$2000. Contact the Casualty Recovery Program to determine where to mail the Summons and
Complaint.
The Corporation Counsel handles individual county
cases; contact the Casualty Recovery Program to determine which
county certified
the client
for Wisconsin Medicaid.
Medicaid HMOs handle their own subrogation. Contact the Casualty Recovery Program to determine which HMO covered
the client.
