Disenrollment shall be effective on the first day of the calendar month for which the disenrollment appears on the Enrollee Listing Report. The Contractor shall not disenroll an Enrollee because of an adverse change in the Enrollee’s health status, or because of the Enrollee’s utilization of medical services, diminished mental capacity, or uncooperative or disruptive behavior resulting from Enrollee’s special needs (except when Enrollee’s continued enrollment in the CCO seriously impairs the Contractor’s ability to furnish services to either this particular Enrollee or other Enrollees.) The Contractor must file a request to disenroll an Enrollee with the Division in writing stating specifically the reasons for the request if the reasons are for other than those specified above. An Enrollee may request disenrollment without cause during the ninety (90) days following the date the Division sends the Enrollee notice of enrollment or the date of the Enrollee’s initial enrollment, whichever is later, during the annual open enrollment period, upon automatic reenrollment if the temporary loss of Medicaid eligibility has caused the Enrollee to miss the annual disenrollment opportunity, or when the Division imposes an intermediate sanction on the Contractor as specified in this Contract. An Enrollee may request disenrollment from the CCO for cause if the CCO does not, because of moral or religious objections, cover the service the Enrollee seeks, the Enrollee needs related services to be performed at the same time, not all related services are available within the network, the Enrollee’s primary care provider or another provider determines receiving the services separately would subject Enrollee to unnecessary risk, poor quality of care, lack of access to services covered under the Plan, or lack of access to providers experienced in dealing with the Enrollee’s health care needs. Enrollee requests for disenrollment must be directed to the Division either orally or in writing. The effective date of any approved disenrollment will be no later than the first day of the second month following the month in which the Enrollee or the Plan files the request with the Division.
