Governor Disclaimer On Two NEO Workshops The Governor's Office of Manpower and Human Development (GOMHD) has issued a disclaimer to any association with an announced workshop for Jan. 11-12 and Feb. 22-23 on the Governor's Special Grant and Governor's Youth Program sponsored by National Educational Options (NEO). In a memorandum addressed to those who were reportedly mailed a brochure announcing these workshops, the agency disavowed any knowledge or endorsement of the non-profit group's plans to provide training in the preparation of Governor's grant proposals. The agency is investigating the NEO listing of GOMHD workshop staff, who reportedly had no prior knowledge of their scheduled participation. Goss said disciplinary action would be considered if there were violations of agency policy or state and federal law involved. I I Senior Hot Line | (Written under the auspices of Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal) (This is the final article on the most asked questions to the Illinois Department of In­ surance concerning sup­ plemental and Medicare in­ surance.) Q. What shall I do if I have a claim under my supplemental policy? A. File all claims promptly. With each claim payment from Medicare, you will receive an "Explanation of Benefits". If the insurance company requests it in order to deter mine its share of the cost, make a copy of it to send to the in­ surance company. When you send in a claim, write down the date you mail it. Keep copies of any information you have concerning services received, the dates of services and the person or persons who provided the services. Many large clinics will provide a special billing to be submitted to your insurance company. Make sure that you are provided with an itemized bill. This bill should include the date, type of service, and the amount charged for each service performed. There must also be a diagnosis, or "symp­ toms and complaints", for each item of expense. You can speed up claim handling if you make sure any required claim form is completed properly, that itemized bills are attached, and that copies of the Medicare Explanation of Benefit forms are submitted, if required. Q. Are benefits payable by Medicare or private com­ panies if I am receiving custodial care? < A. No. Benefits are not payable for custodial care. Care is considered custodial when it is primarily for the purpose of meeting personal needs and could be provided by persons without professional skills or training; for example, any claim not filed within that^ help in walking, getting in and period is barred as to theestate ouj 0j 5^ bathing, eating, and are approached to buy ad­ ditional policies, check with members of your family or someone in your community who can advise you if ad­ ditional coverage is necessary or desirable before making a purchase. Q.. What does the term "reasonable and necessary" mean in determining if a level of care is covered by Medicare? A. Before Medicare will provide benefits for the care you receive, the treatment must be medically necessary. For example, if you stay in a hospital or skilled nursing facility longer than you need to be there, Medicare payments would cease when further in­ patient care is no longer reasonable and necessary. Q. If questions or problems arise concerning Medicare, who should 1 contact? A. You should contact the E.Erie Jones, Illinois state coordinating officer with the Federal- State 4 Emergency Assistance program, has announced the schedule of emergency snow removal briefings for local officials in the 23 counties of northern Illinois seeking reimbursement for two-thirds of their eligible snow removal activities which were immediately necessary to provide emergency access in order to protect public health and safety and which were performed during the eligibility period of 12:01 a.m. Jan. 16,through 1C59 p.m., Jan. 20, will be eligible for reimbursement. Ron Buddecke, acting regional director of the Federal D i s a s t e r A s s i s t a n c e administration, urged local government agencies not to send any paperwork pertaining to their snow removal efforts to either FDAA or any state agency. This special state-federal briefings will be held beginning Wednesday Jan. 24 to assist applicants and explain the procedures for reimbursement, Buddecke said. Two briefings a day will be conducted throughout the 23 counties designated under the presidential emergency declaration of Jan. 16, 1979. During the briefings, officials of FDAA and the state of Illinois will outline methods for reimbursement and provide instructions to applicants and be avilable to answer questions. "It is our hope that by conducting the state-sponsored briefings, and establishing project application service centers to handle the filing for f e d e r a l a s s i s t a n c e Medicare carrier or any Social Security office. Q. What if I pay be cash? A. Always make sure you get a receipt that has the insuring company's name boldly printed and signed (legibly) by the agent.

"We recognize," Buddecke said, "that many school districts private non-profit schools, private, non-profit hospitals and private non-profit nursing homes, and certain unincorporated areas have performed eligible snow removal work during the e l i g i b i l i t y p e r i o d . Representatives of these organizations and areas should not attend these meetings but should contact officials of their local unit of government after briefings and arrange to include their claim for reimbursement with their local agency's application. Buddeke reemphasized that these organizations should not worry about being left out and that the regional briefings are intended for those governmental agencies that will file applications. Units of local government attending the briefings will be given special instructions for including these claims in their reimbursement instructions: He recommended that loal government officials begin collecting documents to support their applications. Copies of contracts or purchase orders, contractors invoices listing hours, equipment and work performed, maps showing location where snow was removed,and force account records showing names of workers,hours worked and wage rate and list of equipment and hours worked, area examples of the types or information that will bev needed. During the regional briefing, applicants will be informed of wh«n and where to take the required supporting documents and how to fill out the application iFDAA personnel and F Jeral Highway administration engineers will provide staff assistance to applicants at each Project Application service center.

"Don't you see my signa­ ture?" snapped the indignant patron. "Yes, sir. That's what aroused my curiosity." CROSSROADS There comes a time in every life When each must take a look At what has been and what is now And the future about to unfold. Each act of the past will react in the now And the debt of the future, I'm told, Is the story of things we did in the past And tried to forget in the now. So each must stop and look around Before he takes the steps That will mark his future in bold sure lines And never be erased. Louise Hipwell LOST LOVE Although the time has passed us by When close we might have been, And thoughts of love in our hearts was high Our time of once was then. We thought th£t we had lots of time In the future our love to share, Our love was something so sublime It would never leave us bare. But then we found that love passed by And when we turned around to look We found that we would have to try To find another nook. Unnourished love, like some young child Can never, never hold The cup of joy so sweet and mild It's the loneliest story ever told.
