NYLAG Support of NY Assembly Bill A4996 - Correcting Violations of Due Process Appeal RIghts in Managed Care Download
A4996 Gottfried MLTC Appeals Bill NYLAG 2014 FINAL.pdf
This bill would correct two due process violations: (1) The lack of "aid continuing" pending an appeal when a managed care plan reduces or terminates home care or other services -- if the "authorization period" for the services has expired, there is a right to appeal but no right to aid continuing. This provides that aid continuing must be given regardless of whether the authorization period has expired. (2) In Managed long term care, consumers must "exhaust" internal appeals before requesting a hearing. This is not required in mainstream managed care, and results in dismissal of many valid appeals because consumers don't know that they must pursue this interim internal appeal.
