Dear Attorney:
Please be advised that the Department of Public Welfare maintains a
claim in the amount of $120,687.14 against the above-mentioned estate. This
claim is for restitution of medical assistance granted on behalf of the
decedent for which the Probate Estate is now responsible to reimburse the
Department according to Act 49, 62 P.S. 1412, effective August 15, 1994, as
amended by Act 20-95, effective June 30, 1995. Enclosed is the Department's
itemized statement of claim.
A portion of this medical expense, namely $21,409.01, was incurred
during the last six months of the decedent's life; therefore, it is a Class 3
claim pursuant to Section 3392 of the Decedents, Estates, and Fiduciaries
Code, 20 Pa. C.S.A. 3392(3). The balance of the claim, namely $99,278.13, is
to be entered as a priority Class 6 claim against the estate.
Please acknowledge receipt of this letter and advise whether the
Commonwealth's claim is admitted and when payment may be expected. If the
estate accounting is complete, please provide a copy. If the estate contains
real estate, please provide copies of the deed, the latest tax assessment,
and a current appraisal, if available.
