Request for a Penalty Waiver Determination

10.6 - Request for a Penalty Waiver Determination (Rev. 739, Issued: 11-01-05, Effective: 07-24-03, Implementation: 01-19-06) A provider or supplier must request a §903(c) penalty waiver determination (but should not file such a request before receiving a notice of an intent to impose a penalty). If the provider elects to request a penalty waiver determination, the provider or supplier must do so by the deadline specified in the notice referenced in §10.5 or, if applicable, by the deadline specified in the second paragraph of §10.5. Although a penalty waiver determination must customarily be requested by the affected provider or supplier, the contractor having jurisdiction over the matter (see §10.7 below) may initiate such a determination on equitable grounds or for other good cause.
