Voluntary Termination

10.6.1 - Voluntary Termination (Rev. 1, 09-11-02) A provider may terminate its agreement (and in the case of a SNF, it may terminate its agreement prior to the close of the specified term of its agreement) by filing with the Secretary a written notice of its intention to terminate the agreement. The Secretary may accept the termination date stated in the notice (the date must be the first day of a month and, in the case of a SNF, must occur within the specified term of such facility's agreement) or set a different date. However, the termination date set by the Secretary may not be more than 6 months from the date the provider's notice is filed.
