    (b)How the overpayment was computed; and

     

    (c)Specific reference to the particular sections of the statutes, rules, provider's manual and/or provider's agreement involved.

    (a)The reasons for making the suspension; and

     

    (b)Any actions the Director intends to take to determine if any overpayment has been made.

     

    1306.4Within thirty (30) days of the date in which the notice is sent to the provider under this section, the provider may submit documentary evidence and written argument against the proposed action.

     

    1306.5For good cause shown, the Director may extend the thirty (30) day period.

     

    1306.6If no statement is received from the provider within the thirty (30) day period or the additional thirty (30) day period specified in the notice, the suspension shall go into effect on the date after the end of the period.

     

    1306.7The provisions of this section shall not apply when the Director, after furnishing a provider a written notice of the amount of the program reimbursement pursuant to §1309, suspends payment under that section.
