A. A medicaid provider or subcontractor seeking an informal conference pursuant to this section shall serve the department with a written request for such conference no later than thirty calendar days following the service of a preliminary determination of overpayment by the department on the medicaid provider or subcontractor. Upon receipt of a request for an informal conference, the department shall set a date for the conference to occur no later than fourteen business days following receipt of the request.

B. Within seven days following the informal conference, a medicaid provider or subcontractor may submit a proposed corrective action plan to the department to correct clerical, typographical, scrivener's and computer errors or to provide requested credentialing, licensure or training records identified in audit findings. The department shall not unreasonably withhold approval of the proposed corrective action plan. A medicaid provider or subcontractor shall have no less than thirty days from the date of approval of its corrective action plan to provide additional information or documentation to the department to attempt to address or resolve a disputed preliminary finding of overpayment.
