EAEDC Medical Report
General Instructions to Medical and Mental Health Care Providers
Your patient has applied for cash and medical assistance under a DTA program as disabled. To be eligible, your patient must file an EAEDC Medical Report so that eligibility can be determined. Regulations for a disability determination require that a diagnosis be supported by specific clinical findings. The medical data provided by you in the report (clinical findings, diagnosis, test results) will be used by DTA to determine disability.
For these purposes, an individual is disabled if he or she has an impairment or combination of impairments that is expected to last 60 days or more and that substantially reduces or eliminates the applicant’s or client’s ability to support himself or herself.
If you need a copy of DTA’s regulations regarding a disability determination, telephone (617)
The Department will pay for the medical evaluations needed to complete a Medical Report, including diagnostic tests, through its regular medical billing system (newMMIS). Please use your regular MassHealth Provider Number when submitting invoices for these services.
The EAEDC Medical Report must be signed by a Competent Medical Authority. Please refer to page 10 for details before proceeding further.
The EAEDC Medical Report must include an objective report of clinical findings and current functioning.
It is essential that, when you complete the EAEDC Medical Report, you supply all relevant information.
Complete the EAEDC Medical Report in full with respect to the conditions that are relevant to the patient. Sign and return it to the patient or mail it to: DTA Document Processing Center, P.O. Box 4406, Taunton MA
Call UMASS/Disability Evaluation Services (DES) at
