[§ 5111.17.3] § 5111.173. Appointment of temporary manager for managed care organization.
 

The department of job and family services shall appoint a temporary manager for a managed care organization under contract with the department pursuant to section 5111.17 of the Revised Code if the department determines that the managed care organization has repeatedly failed to meet substantive requirements specified in section 1903(m) of the "Social Security Act," 79 Stat. 286 (1965), 42 U.S.C. 1396b(m), as amended; section 1932 of the Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. 1396u-2, as amended; or 42 C.F.R. 438 Part I. The appointment of a temporary manager does not preclude the department from imposing other sanctions available to the department against the managed care organization. 
 

The managed care organization shall pay all costs of having the temporary manager perform the temporary manager's duties, including all costs the temporary manager incurs in performing those duties. If the temporary manager incurs costs or liabilities on behalf of the managed care organization, the managed care organization shall pay those costs and be responsible for those liabilities. 
 

The appointment of a temporary manager is not subject to Chapter 119. of the Revised Code, but the managed care organization may request a reconsideration of the appointment. Reconsiderations shall be requested and conducted in accordance with rules the director of job and family services shall adopt in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code. 
 

The appointment of a temporary manager does not cause the managed care organization to lose the right to appeal, in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code, any proposed termination or any decision not to renew the managed care organization's medicaid provider agreement or the right to initiate the sale of the managed care organization or its assets. 
 

In addition to the rules required to be adopted under this section, the director may adopt any other rules necessary to implement this section. The rules shall be adopted in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code.
