Absent Parent

PART A

ABS

To get MassHealth for you and a child who is living with you, you must cooperate with the Child Support Enforcement Division of the Massachusetts Department of Revenue (DOR) to establish paternity and enforce a medical-support order, unless you have Good Cause not to cooperate. You must also assign your rights for medical support to MassHealth. Cooperation means that you may have to give information about the identity, location, and employment of the absent parent, appear for appointments with DOR sta and the Court, submit to paternity testing, give information, and take any other action necessary to help DOR in establishing paternity, and establishing, changing, or enforcing a child medical-support order.“Good Cause” is a legal term that means if you cooperated by giving us information about the absent parent, it would not be in the best interests of the child for any of the reasons listed in Part C—Good Cause—on the next page. If you think that you have Good Cause for not cooperating, ll out Part C—Good Cause—on the next page, and do not ll out Part D—Absent-Parent Information—on the next page.

If you do not want to make a Good Cause claim, and you do not cooperate by lling out Part D—Absent-Parent Information—on the next page, your MassHealth eligibility could be aected.

To get MassHealth only for the child who is living with you and not for yourself, you do not have to cooperate with DOR, assign your rights for medical support to MassHealth, or give information about the absent parent. Also, if a pregnant family member is applying for benets for an unborn child, you do not need to give us information about the absent parent of the unborn child at this time. This means that you do not have to ll out Part B, C, D, or E of this supplement for that unborn child. Please read the next paragraph about child-support-enforcement services.

Even if you are applying for MassHealth only for the child who is living with you, you can ask for child-support-enforcement services if you want help getting the absent parent to pay for health insurance or child support for the child. To do this, you can call DOR at 1-800-332-2733, or go to www.mass.gov/dor and click on “Child Support.”The child’s MassHealth coverage will not be aected if you choose to ask for these services or not. If you ask for these services, you will have to cooperate with DOR.
