SECTION 260:50-3-4. Right of recovery  


Latest version.
  • (a)   Error in payment. Any benefits paid erroneously by EGID are fully recoverable from the recipient. No such erroneous payment shall constitute waiver or estoppel or result in any equitable obligation by EGID to pay any benefits which are not specifically payable according to the rules in this title and the benefit administration procedures or guidelines as adopted by the Board. [74 O.S. §1321]
    (b)   Excessive amounts. Whenever payments have been made by EGID with respect to allowable expenses in a total amount, at any time, in excess of the maximum amount of payment necessary at the time to satisfy the intent of this part, the Administrator shall have the right to recover such excess, from any person, organization or company with respect to whom such payments were made.
    (c)   Right to Audit. EGID reserves the right to audit any enrollment or insurance change form and to require that supporting documentation showing the participant's eligibility, including (but not limited to) proof of a qualifying event, be provided. EGID may retroactively terminate coverage on any individual who was not eligible to be enrolled in the Plan and recover any claims paid on the individual's behalf.
