Every person that applies for AHCCCS Medical Assistance must receive a letter explaining the decision on their application. See MA1604 for information regarding written letters.
Generally, approval letters are automatically sent out by:
Hospital staff from subscriber organizations for HPE; and
Health-e-Arizona Plus (HEAplus) for all other programs.
When a letter generated by HEAplus appears to be incorrect, see Procedures for Manual Letters for instructions.
