Common use of Third Party Liability (TPL) Clause in Contracts

Third Party Liability (TPL). The legal obligation of a third party (other than Medicaid) to pay for part or all of a claim. Since Medicaid is legally the “payer of last resort,” the identification of other payer obligations is a major requirement in the adjudication of claims. Trade Secret: Per Wis. Stat. 134.90(1), trade secrets are information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process to which all of the following apply: • 134.90(1)(c)1.1. The information derives independent economic value, actual or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use. • 134.90(1)(c)2.2. The information is the subject of efforts to maintain its secrecy that are reasonable under the circumstances. Trading Partner: Refers to a provider or PIHP that transmits any health information in electronic form in connection with a transaction covered by 45 CFR Parts 160 and 162, or a business associate authorized to submit health information on the Trading Partner’s behalf. Transaction: The exchange of information between two parties to carry out financial or administrative activities related to health care as defined by 45 CFR Part 160.103. Transitional Care: Processes to ensure continuity of care that include, but are not limited to, medication reconciliation, ensuring members have a comprehensive understanding of their treatment plan, and assisting members with scheduling follow-up appointments with their primary care provider or specialists as needed after a member is discharged from an emergency department, hospital, nursing home, or rehabilitation facility or when a member is leaving out of home care or leaving the Xxxxxx Care Medical Home. Per 42 CFR § 438.208(b)(2), processes to coordinate services the PIHP furnishes to the member between settings of care, including appropriate discharge planning for short term and long-term hospital and institutional stays. Trauma-informed Care: An approach to engaging people with histories of trauma that recognizes the presence of trauma symptoms and acknowledges the role that trauma has played in their lives. Urgent care/service needs: Services provided to treat a non-emergency, unforeseen medical illness, injury, or condition that requires immediate medical care. Urgently needed services are often but not always those that if not fulfilled could result in an emergency room visit or inpatient admission. Validation: Per 42 CFR §438.320, the review of information, data, and procedures to determine the extent to which they are accurate, reliable, free from bias, and in accord with standards for data collection and analysis. Voluntary: Refers to situations where the Department cannot or does not require Medicaid members to enroll in a PIHP. Waste: The unnecessary incurrence of costs as a result of inefficient or inaccurate practices, systems or controls. Wisconsin Statewide Health Information Network (WISHIN): Wisconsin’s health information network that shares electronic health information securely between participating physicians, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, clinical laboratories, and Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) across the state. Wisconsin Tribal Health Directors Association (WTHDA): The coalition of all Wisconsin American Indian Tribal Health Departments. Per 42 CFR 438.10, the PIHP must use the definitions for managed care terminology found above when communicating with members to ensure consistency in the information provided to members. Terms that are not defined above shall have their primary meaning identified in Wis. Adm. Code DHS 101-108.
