Affordable Care Act (ACA) - Data Exchange

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a federal statute enacted with a goal of increasing the quality and affordability of health insurance. Through a web service, CMS sends applicant information to SSA. SSA matches applicant data to various SSA data sources and provides a response back to CMS, based on the results of the matches. The results of these matches help CMS and states determine an applicant's eligibility and cost for health insurance. SSA provides results to CMS for matches of SSN, Name, and DOB against the Numident. SSA may also provide incarceration data from PUPS, Title II income from the MBR, and quarters of coverage data from the MEF.

Medicare Secondary Payer

The Medicare Secondary Payer project is an annual process which attempts to identify working Medicare beneficiaries and/or their spouses. The first stage of this process is to extract all of the Medicare beneficiaries from the MBR.  Prior to 2015, CSPOTRUN performed this function.  Beginning in 2015, CSRETAP accomplishes this. In this process two files are prepared. One file goes to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a tax return search and the other file is used for the Master Earnings File (MEF) search. IRS searches their tax return database and identifies returns that have spouses identified and returns this information to SSA. This file is then run against the MEF to obtain any current employment information for the beneficiary or the spouse. This data is sent to CMS for their process to determine whether Medicare should be the secondary payer for hospital and doctors bills. They determine whether the beneficiary and/or spouse have current health insurance coverage from their employer.

Totalization Data Exchange (TDEX)

The Totalization Data Exchange (TDEX) process is an exchange between SSA and its foreign country partners to identify deaths of beneficiaries residing abroad. The process provides for the sharing of death data and restricts the disclosure of Personally Identifiable Information (PII). When TDEX was implemented in 2009 (TDEX II), it was comprised of two separate, distinct processes: one process provided death information to the Totalization (TOT) partners, the  other process received death information from partner countries for use within SSA beginning in 2011. Enhancements were made to create a finder file process in which SSA sends information to our foreign partners concerning beneficiaries residing in their country. The foreign partners respond with death information for US beneficiaries who have died in their country.

Title XVI/Veteran's Administration (VA) Interface

On a monthly basis the Department of Veteran's Affairs transmits a file of all Veterans and Veterans spouses receiving a VA pension and/or compensation benefit payment.

It also enables SSA to efficiently implement a Medicare outreach program, identify income limits for certain individuals, and determine an individuals potential eligibility for Medicare Savings Programs (MSP) and identify these individuals to the States.  OEEAS is responsible for the front-end Pre-Edit program that filters the incoming VA file and generates a report containing erroneous values.
