  1. ALJ Now Dismissing Hospice Appeals For Allegedly Insufficient Service On Beneficiary

    Sheppard, Mullin, Richter & Hampton LLPBrian DaucherApril 28, 2015

    To warrant dismissal, there must be a serious, willful, and clear failure to comply. See Betty K Agencies, Ltc. v. M/V Monada, 432 F.3d 1333, 1339 (11th Cir. 2005) (vacating dismissal for technical service error, finding failure to perfect service did not warrant dismissal; noting that dismissal is “a drastic remedy”). ALJ’s should refrain from taking such drastic steps where there is a minor technical violation.Even though ALJs should not be dismissing these appeals so regularly, providers need to be cautious with respect to service.
