When a DMI occurs, what does Virginia Insurance Marketplace send to consumers?

When a DMI, or Data Matching Issue, occurs, the Virginia Insurance Marketplace issues an Eligibility Determination Notice (EDN) to consumers. This notice is essential as it informs consumers about any discrepancies or issues that have arisen in their application for health coverage. The EDN allows individuals to understand the nature of the problem and provides them with the necessary steps they need to take to resolve the situation. This process ensures that their eligibility for coverage can be accurately assessed and that they can obtain the healthcare benefits they need.

The other options represent different types of communications that may be associated with various stages of the application process but are not specifically tied to a DMI. For instance, a notice of denial would indicate that an application has been rejected outright, which is not the same as addressing a data mismatch. A reminder of application deadlines is intended to prompt consumers to submit their applications on time, not to clarify issues within submitted information. Similarly, a welcome packet is typically sent to new enrollees to provide information about their health plan after they have completed their enrollment process, rather than in response to a DMI.
