Request for a Fair Hearing

(A) A request for a fair hearing is defined as a written statement by the appellant that asks for administrative review of an appealable action. The request for a fair hearing must be received by BOH within the time limits set forth in 130 CMR 610.015. (B) Any request for a fair hearing that cites coercive or otherwise improper conduct on the part of a MassHealth agency employee must state the name of the employee and the place, date, and nature of the incident or incidents. If the request lacks the information required by 130 CMR 610.034, BOH will notify the appellant of the requirement. If the appellant then fails to provide the information within ten days, the appeal will be dismissed.
