(a) The Wyoming Military Department Human Resources Office shall be responsible for investigating all claims for medical expense payment or reimbursement under W.S. 19-9-403(a) and preparing a written decision that shall be sent to the member.
(b) All claims for payment or reimbursement of reasonable medical expenses shall be investigated to the extent necessary to determine whether the claimed medical expense is reasonable, whether the expense is a direct consequence of state active duty, and the extent to which any insurance carrier, other governmental entity, or other party may have potential legal liability for payment of the medical expense at issue.
(c) In conducting its investigation, the Human Resources Office may obtain statements from witnesses, review documents, and consult with experts upon matters relevant to a determination of the claim. The member may be required to produce any relevant information. In cases in which the complexity of the matter requires it, the Human Resources Office may request that the Adjutant General appoint an Investigating Officer to conduct an investigation.
