CMS released an S&C letter on April 24, 2015 for all providers regarding requests for Administrative Law Judge hearings. Reiterating a prior requirement, the letter states that starting October 1, 2014, electronic submissions must be used when providers are requesting a hearing regarding civil remedies.
To file a DAB E-File, providers must include a signed hearing request and a copy of the notice from CMS that includes information on the adverse action and the appeal rights of the provider.
Read CMS S&C letter, “New Instructions for Providers Filing an Appeal with the Departmental Appeals Board (DAB)” (Ref: S&C 15-36-ALL).
