(b) In the event of a final determination finding a conflict with federal law, the department shall immediately request the Attorney General to seek judicial review of the determination and shall immediately notify the appropriate policy and fiscal committees of both houses of the Legislature.

(c)(1) If federal funds are withheld based on a determination by the United States Department of Health and Human Services that any provision of this article conflicts with federal law, the department may adopt emergency regulations in accordance with Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section 11340) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, if necessary to avoid withholding of federal reimbursement.
