 amended and a new subsection (e) is added to read as follows:

 tled in accordance with paragraph (d) of subdivision  three  of  section

 insurance benefits paid or provided under any accident and health insur

 COVERED PERSON UNDER SUCH POLICY.
 (E) WRITTEN CLAIM FOR EARLY INTERVENTION  PROGRAM  SERVICES  SHALL  BE
 SUBMITTED  BY  THE  MUNICIPALITY  AS  THE  APPROVED  PROVIDER WITHIN ONE
 HUNDRED FIFTY DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SERVICE.
