What documentation does Amanda need to obtain from Noel prior to submitting an updated eligibility application for Noel after a move?

• A. Consent only
• B. Eligibility application review only
• C. Both consent and eligibility application review
• D. No documentation needed

Answer: (C)

When updating an eligibility application after a move, two authorizations are needed to proceed properly. First, consent is required so Amanda has permission to access Noel’s personal information and share it with her as Noel’s authorized representative. Second, an eligibility application review (EAR) must be in place to authorize Amanda to review Noel’s updated details and submit the updated eligibility application on Noel’s behalf. Both pieces safeguard privacy and authorize the assistant to take action on the consumer’s behalf. Without consent, Amanda can’t access Noel’s data; without the EAR, she can’t submit the update. That’s why the best choice is to have both consent and eligibility application review.
