When a provider is the subject of a notice by the United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) requiring the provider's suspension or the denial, termination, or refusal to renew a provider contract pursuant to §1902(a)(39) ( 42 U.S.C. 1396a(a)(39)) or any other section of the Social Security Act, the provider's participation in MassHealth will be suspended or its provider contract will be denied, terminated, or not renewed in accordance with the HHS notice, subject, however, to the provisions of 130 CMR 450.216. The MassHealth agency will not afford a hearing to the provider as to the correctness or validity of the action taken by HHS.
