Site Inspections

(A) The MassHealth agency may, at any time, conduct announced or unannounced site inspections of any PACT provider to determine compliance with applicable regulations. Such site inspections do not need to pertain to any actual or suspected deficiency in compliance with the regulations. (B) After any site inspection where deficiencies are observed, the MassHealth agency will prepare a written site inspection report, which will include the deficiencies found. If requested by the MassHealth agency, the PACT provider must submit a corrective action plan to correct each of the deficiencies cited within the timeframe set forth by the MassHealth agency, including the specific corrective steps to be taken, a timetable for these steps, and the date by which full compliance will be achieved. The MassHealth agency will review the corrective action plan and will accept the corrective action plan only if it conforms to these requirements. (C) After any site inspection where deficiencies are observed, the MassHealth agency may impose sanctions as specified in 130 CMR 464.407 in addition to or as an alternative to requiring a PACT provider to implement a corrective action under 130 CMR 464.410.
