In the event of an application listing multiple service locations, MassHealth will evaluate each identified service location for eligibility prior to enrollment.(D) The MassHealth agency will notify the applicant of its determination in writing. An application will not be considered complete until the applicant has responded to all MassHealth requests for additional information, and MassHealth has completed any site inspection it deems necessary.(E) If the MassHealth agency determines that the applicant or any of its service locations is not eligible for enrollment, the notice of determination will contain a statement of the reasons for that determination, such as incomplete application materials.(F) The enrollment is valid only for the entity and service location(s) specifically identified for enrollment in the notice of determination and is not transferable to other entities or other service locations or programs operated by the applicant. Any medical respite provider seeking to establish an additional service location that was not approved in the initial notice of determination must apply for the enrollment of the additional service location as directed by MassHealth, and MassHealth shall issue a new notice of determination with respect to the additional service location. In order to receive payment for services rendered at a particular service location, the service location must be specifically approved to render medical respite services in a written notice of determination.Adopted by Mass Register Issue 1538, eff. 1/3/2025.
