BENEFICIARY LIABILITY Clause Samples
The Beneficiary Liability clause defines the responsibilities and potential legal obligations of the beneficiary under an agreement. It typically outlines the circumstances under which the beneficiary may be held liable for losses, damages, or breaches related to the contract, such as misuse of funds or failure to comply with specified terms. This clause serves to clarify the extent of the beneficiary's accountability, thereby allocating risk and ensuring all parties understand the consequences of non-compliance or misconduct.
BENEFICIARY LIABILITY. A. The CONTRACTOR or an affiliate, vendor, contractor, or subcontractor of the CONTRACTOR shall not submit a claim to, or demand or otherwise collect reimbursement from, the beneficiary or persons acting on behalf of the beneficiary for any specialty mental health or related administrative services provided under this contract, except to collect other health insurance coverage, share of cost, and co-payments. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 9, § 1810.365 (a).)
B. The CONTRACTOR or an affiliate, vendor, or sub-subcontractor of the CONTRACTOR shall not hold beneficiaries liable for debts in the event that the CONTRACTOR becomes insolvent; for costs of covered services for which the State or MHP does not pay the CONTRACTOR; for costs of covered services for which the State or the COUNTY does not pay the CONTRACTOR’S network providers; for costs of covered services provided under a contract, referral or other arrangement rather than from the CONTRACTOR; or for payment of subsequent screening and treatment needed to diagnose the specific condition of or stabilize a beneficiary. 42 C.F.R. § 438.106 and Cal.
