048-29 Wyo. Code R. §§ 29-6 - Stay of Client Lock-in
(a) If a client
requests a contested case proceeding regarding lock-in pursuant to Chapter 4 of
the Medicaid Rules, the client lock-in remains in effect during the contested
case proceeding unless the Department stays the lock-in according to the
following provisions:
(i) In order for a stay
of the lock-in to be granted, the client, client's guardian, or an individual
authorized to act on the client's behalf, shall submit a written request for a
stay to the Department concurrent with the request for a contested case
proceeding. The request for a stay must include a statement regarding the
potential impact on the client's health and welfare if the lock-in were to
remain in effect.
(ii) The
Department may not grant a request for a stay unless the Department finds that
the lock-in would cause the client irreparable harm.
(iii) If the Department grants a request for
a stay, the Department may impose whatever conditions it finds necessary to
protect the health and welfare of the client or the interests of the Medicaid
program.
(iv) The Department shall
provide written notice of its decision to grant or deny a request for a stay.
The written notice must provide the grounds in support of the Department's
decision.
