Consolidated billing makes the facility responsible for most services, and Medicaid is the dominant long-stay payer in most states. In New Jersey that plays out against a specific set of rules rather than a general one.
Claims for New Jersey providers are adjudicated by Novitas Solutions (JL), which is also who hears the first level of appeal — so an appeal argument that works here works in every state that contractor covers.

No-fault — auto carrier pays first
What changes in New Jersey
Medicaid in New Jersey runs as NJ FamilyCare and is delivered largely through commercial managed care plans, so most Medicaid claims are adjudicated by an insurer with its own filing window and its own authorization rules rather than by the state.
New Jersey is a no-fault state. For an auto injury the auto carrier is the payer of first resort, not the health plan, and billing the health plan first produces a denial that looks like a coverage problem but is a sequencing problem.
