[WSBAPT] Follow up DSHS query

[Jane Bitz]

I think that they are diligent about defending their lien rights. DSHS will also file a lien against the real property owned by the decedent to recover the amount of their claim. What is the basis for rejecting the claim?

Subject: [WSBAPT] Follow up DSHS query

Hi all,

A follow up about DSHS- are they known to frequently file suit within the 30-day window after a rejection?  Curious about others' experiences in this regard.
