Medicare Safety Net and Family Tax Benefit (FTB) validation with Medicare 101-06110000

The FTB (A) Validation (FAV) screen:

• displays the FTB (A) data that Centrelink sends to Medicare
• allows Service Officers to refresh FTB (A) Validation transactions where there is:
• something wrong with the record (for example, corruption), or
• an observable delay in system response time to a change

The FAV screen displays one calendar year per page, in descending order. All transactions for a calendar year (from 2004) are displayed with these fields:

• Calendar year
• Status:
• ATT - Attempted Match
• NMT - No Match
• MAT - Match
• Payment Type (Past period and Not Past Period)
• Payment Delivery Date
• Transaction Date

Press:

• [Enter] to go to the Activity List (AL) screen
• [F7] and [PF8] to scroll to previous/next pages (if any)
• [F10] and [F11] to scroll through the history of calendar years (if any)

If required, overtype these fields to display the required year:

• Year
• Calendar Year

Performing a refresh of FTB (A) Validation data is the only valid action available on the FAV screen.

The Request Action field will not display if the calendar year is more than 2 years in the future.

• DOR > [Enter]

In the Confirm Action field, key either:

• Y > [Enter]. The AL screen will display a completed FAO/REA activity, or
