6.4 Cost Report Settlement Appeal Process
A provider who is dissatisfied with the determination contained in the Notice of Amount of Program Reimbursement (NPR) from TMHP Medicaid Audit may request an appeal as follows:
• The request for appeal must be in writing.
• The request for appeal must be filed within 120 calendar days from the date of receipt of the NPR.
• If the amount in controversy is at least $1,000, the request for the appeal must be filed with TMHP Medicaid Audit.
• If the NPR shows that the provider is indebted to the Texas Medicaid Program, TMHP must take the necessary action to recover the overpayment, including a suspension of interim payments. This process will take place even if an appeal has been requested.
