Appeals Process Sample Clauses
The Appeals Process clause establishes a formal procedure for challenging or reviewing decisions made under the agreement. Typically, it outlines the steps a party must take to initiate an appeal, such as submitting a written notice within a specified timeframe and providing supporting documentation. This clause ensures that parties have a clear and fair method to seek reconsideration of decisions, thereby promoting transparency and reducing the likelihood of disputes escalating unnecessarily.

1) Allow a beneficiary, or a provider or authorized representative acting on the beneficiary’s behalf, to file an appeal orally or in writing. (42 C.F.R. § 438.402(c)(3)(ii).) The beneficiary may file an appeal within 60 calendar days from the date on the adverse benefit determination notice (42 C.F.R. § 438.402(c)(2)(ii).);
2) Require a beneficiary who makes an oral appeal that is not an expedited appeal, to subsequently submit a written, signed appeal. (42 C.F.R. § 438.402(c)(3)(ii).) The Contractor shall ensure that oral inquiries seeking to appeal an adverse benefit determination are treated as appeals, and confirmed in writing unless the beneficiary or the provider requests expedited resolution. The date the Contractor receives the oral appeal shall be considered the filing date for the purpose of applying the appeal timeframes (42 C.F.R. § 438.406(b)(3).);
3) Resolve each appeal and provide notice, as expeditiously as the beneficiary’s health condition requires, within 30 calendar days from the day the Contractor receives the appeal.

(42 CFR 438.408(c)(1); 42 CFR 438.408(b)(2).) If the Contractor extends the timeframes, the Contractor shall, for any extension not requested by the beneficiary, make reasonable efforts to give the beneficiary prompt oral notice of the delay and notify the beneficiary of the extension and the reasons for the extension in writing within 2 calendar days of the decision to extend the timeframe. Contractor’s written notice of extension shall inform the beneficiary of the right to file a grievance if he or she disagrees with the Contractor’s decision. Contractor shall resolve the appeal as expeditiously as the beneficiary's health condition requires and no later than the date the extension expires (42 C.F.R. § 438.408(c)(2)(i)-(iii).) The written notice of the extension is not a Notice of Adverse Benefit Determination. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 9, §1810.230.5.);
