Subject: Appeal of FOIA Request Closure and Referral Medicaid ABI Waiver Program Records
HHS Case Number: 2025-00434-FOIA-OS
To the FOIA Appeals Officer,
I am submitting this appeal regarding the response received on October 25, 2024, from the Office of the Secretary (OS) concerning my FOIA request (HHS Case No. 2025-00434-FOIA-OS). My request, focused on obtaining records related to the Medicaid Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Waiver Program provider registry, was closed by OS and referred to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), citing that the OS does not routinely retain such records(Final_Response_-_Misdir).
Basis for Appeal
While the referral to CMS may address some of the information sought, I am concerned that OSs role in broader Medicaid program oversight suggests it may hold additional records relevant to the ABI Waiver Program that were not fully considered in the initial response. My appeal is based on the following considerations:
OS Records Pertaining to Medicaid Oversight and Interagency Communications: Given OSs role in policy administration within HHS, it is reasonable to anticipate that records such as interagency communications, reports, or directives involving CMS or state agencies related to the ABI Waiver Program may exist within OS. A supplementary search could potentially identify records on collaborative oversight, policy impacts, or public health evaluations concerning the ABI Waiver Program.
Confirmation of Complete Record Transfer: I request verification that all pertinent aspects of my original FOIA request were indeed transferred to CMS and are actively addressed under CMSs oversight. Additionally, I request that any records OS may have retained or generated in relation to CMS or Medicaid policies affecting the ABI Waiver Program be included in a search.
Expedited Processing and Fee Waiver: In light of the public interest and urgent need for transparency in Medicaid services, I reiterate my request for expedited processing under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(E) and a waiver of fees under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(A)(iii). These requests reflect the significant implications for public welfare and are intended solely to serve the public interest.
Relief Sought
I respectfully request that OS conduct a supplemental search to identify any responsive records within its jurisdiction, specifically related to oversight, interagency correspondence, or other relevant information on the Medicaid ABI Waiver Program. Should OS confirm no further records are held, I request assurance that my FOIA request remains fully active with CMS and that CMS will address the comprehensive scope of information sought.
Request for Accommodations and Contact Information
Due to my TBI, I request the following accommodations to facilitate my participation in this process:
Email-Only Communication: Please provide all responses exclusively via email at AabiWR@live.com.
Response Language in Email Body: I ask that the substantive response be included directly in the email body, rather than solely in attachments.
Identification of FOIA Officers: Please ensure each response includes the name, title, and contact information of the officer managing my request.
Avoidance of Portals: To avoid accessibility issues, I request that responses not require portal access or external links.
Thank you for your attention to this appeal. I look forward to a response within the statutory timeframe and am available for further clarification at AabiWR@live.com.

Subject: Appeal for Non-Response and Closure of FOIA Request #2025-00434-FOIA-OS
Introduction
I am submitting this formal appeal to address the Office of the Secretarys (OS) failure to respond to my FOIA appeal, submitted on November 1, 2024, concerning FOIA Request #2025-00434-FOIA-OS. My initial request sought critical records related to the Connecticut Medicaid Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) Waiver Program Provider Registry.
The handling of my FOIA request has raised significant concerns, including:
Violation of FOIA statutory timelines by failing to provide a response to my appeal within 20 working days, as mandated by 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(A)(ii).
Failure to conduct a comprehensive record search within OS, particularly for oversight-related documents that are likely retained by this office.
Non-compliance with ADA and Rehabilitation Act requirements, which ensure equitable access for individuals with disabilities.
This appeal outlines the legal basis, procedural requirements, and relief sought to address these deficiencies.
Basis for Appeal
1. Procedural Violations Under FOIA
Pursuant to 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(A)(ii), agencies are required to provide a determination on appeals within 20 working days. To date, I have received no acknowledgment, updates, or substantive response to my appeal submitted on November 1, 2024.
This procedural lapse undermines transparency and accountability, which FOIA was enacted to protect. The lack of timely communication violates not only statutory obligations but also HHSs FOIA regulations under 45 CFR Part 5, which mandate prompt responses and thorough searches for records.
2. Incomplete Record Search by OS
The OS response dated October 25, 2024, claimed that it does not retain responsive records and referred my request to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This assertion is procedurally and substantively deficient for the following reasons:
OSs Oversight Role: As a central entity within HHS, OS is responsible for Medicaid oversight, policy coordination, and interagency communication. It is highly likely that OS retains documents related to the Medicaid ABI Waiver Program, such as:
Interagency communications between OS and CMS, DSS, or other state agencies.
Policy memoranda, directives, or oversight reports related to the ABI Waiver Program.
Public health impact assessments or evaluations of the ABI Waiver Program.
Incomplete Record Transfer: The referral to CMS does not absolve OS of its responsibility to conduct a supplementary search for records responsive to my original request. Further, OS has provided no confirmation that the entirety of my FOIA request has been transferred to CMS and is actively being addressed.
3. ADA and Rehabilitation Act Non-Compliance
As a traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivor, I am entitled to accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. OS has failed to adhere to these legal obligations by not complying with my accommodation requests, which include:
Exclusive Use of the MuckRock Platform: All responses must be submitted through MuckRock. Phone calls, physical mail, or portal-based systems are inaccessible and non-compliant with my accommodation needs.
Direct Text in Email Body: All responses must embed substantive text in the email body, as attachments alone are insufficient for accessibility.
Accessible Document Formats: Documents must be provided as clearly labeled, screen-reader-compatible PDF attachments, formatted for accessibility.
Simplified Summaries for Complex Records: For lengthy or technical documents, summaries must be included to facilitate comprehension.
Identification of FOIA Personnel: Responses must include the names, titles, and contact details of individuals responsible for processing my request.
4. Public Interest and Urgency
This request pertains to a taxpayer-funded Medicaid program serving one of the most vulnerable populationsindividuals with acquired brain injuries. Transparency in Medicaid provider registries and oversight processes is essential to ensure accountability, equity, and proper allocation of public resources.
Continued delays hinder public oversight and jeopardize the ability of stakeholders to advocate for program improvements.
Relief Sought
To resolve this appeal, I respectfully request the following:
1. Acknowledgment of My Appeal
Provide confirmation that my November 1, 2024, appeal is under review and being processed in compliance with FOIA.
Identify the FOIA Appeals Officer responsible for handling this matter, including their name, title, and contact details.
2. Comprehensive Supplementary Record Search
Direct OS to conduct a thorough search for all responsive records, including:
Oversight communications between OS and CMS, DSS, or other state agencies.
Policy documents, reports, and directives related to the ABI Waiver Program.
Internal correspondence evaluating public health impacts or Medicaid policy effectiveness.
3. Confirmation of CMS Action
Verify that all aspects of my original FOIA request have been transferred to CMS.
Provide tracking information for any new case numbers issued by CMS.
4. Adherence to ADA Accommodations
Commit to the following accommodations for all future communications:
Use of MuckRock Platform: All responses must be submitted exclusively through MuckRock.
Direct Text in Email Body: Substantive responses must be embedded in the email body.
Accessible Documents: Provide documents as clearly labeled, screen-reader-compatible PDFs.
Simplified Summaries: Include summaries for complex documents.
Identification of Personnel: Identify all responsible FOIA officers.
5. Expedited Processing and Fee Waiver Confirmation
Grant expedited processing under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(E), as this request involves urgent matters of public interest.
Confirm approval of my fee waiver under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(A)(iii).
6. Estimated Completion Date
Provide a specific estimated completion date (EDC) for the resolution of this appeal and the fulfillment of my records request, as required under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(7)(B)(ii).
Legal Basis for Appeal
This appeal is grounded in the following statutory and regulatory provisions:
Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C. 552): Mandates timely responses, thorough record searches, and transparent processing.
ADA (42 U.S.C. 12131 et seq.) and Rehabilitation Act (29 U.S.C. 794): Require accommodations to ensure equal access for individuals with disabilities.
HHS FOIA Regulations (45 CFR Part 5): Establish agency responsibilities for record searches, referrals, and timely responses.
Executive Order 13392: Requires agencies to prioritize timely and equitable access to public records.
Consequences of Continued Non-Compliance
Failure to address this appeal will leave me no choice but to escalate the matter by:
Filing a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) regarding ADA violations.
Requesting mediation through the Office of Government Information Services (OGIS).
Initiating legal action to enforce my rights under FOIA and the ADA.
Conclusion
I urge HHS to promptly address this appeal and uphold its statutory and constitutional obligations. I look forward to receiving a substantive response within 10 working days.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Please direct all correspondence exclusively through MuckRock to comply with my ADA accommodations.

Arianne Perkins
Director, Initial FOIA Requests
FOI/Privacy Acts Division
This correspondence pertains to my Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request. Your handling of this matter raises critical concerns under FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552), the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, 42 U.S.C. 12132), and constitutional principles of government accountability.
As recognized in National Archives and Records Administration v. Favish, 541 U.S. 157 (2004), transparency is fundamental to democracy and public trust. Your agencys obligations are not discretionary, and failure to meet them constitutes a violation of statutory and constitutional law. This letter establishes your duties, addresses deficiencies, and anticipates and counters all potential deflection strategies.
1. FOIA Obligations: Statutory Mandates and Required Actions
FOIA establishes an enforceable right of access to federal agency records. Your response must meet the following requirements:
A. Timeliness
Under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(6)(A), you are required to provide a determination within 20 business days. Delays beyond this timeframe, absent legitimate extension requests, constitute a violation of FOIA.
Countermeasure: Delays are actionable under Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington v. DOJ, 711 F.3d 180 (D.C. Cir. 2013).
Required Action: Provide the requested records or a lawful determination.
B. Adequacy of Search
FOIA requires a thorough and reasonable search for records, as established in Campbell v. DOJ, 164 F.3d 20 (D.C. Cir. 1998). This includes:
Identifying the databases, locations, and terms used.
Providing a sworn affidavit detailing the search scope.
Countermeasure: A vague claim of "no responsive records" is insufficient without a detailed affidavit.
Required Action: Submit a sworn affidavit documenting the search or confirm the existence of responsive records.
C. Proper Use of Exemptions
Exemptions under 5 U.S.C. 552(b) must be narrowly applied and justified with specific explanations. Blanket or vague exemptions are impermissible.
Countermeasure: A Vaughn index (Vaughn v. Rosen, 484 F.2d 820 (D.C. Cir. 1973)) is required to justify each withholding.
Required Action: Submit a Vaughn index detailing each exemption and its justification within 10 business days.
D. Decentralization and Referrals
Referrals or decentralization excuses do not absolve your agency of its responsibility to provide a consolidated response. As held in McGehee v. CIA, 697 F.2d 1095 (D.C. Cir. 1983), agencies must coordinate internally to ensure compliance.
Countermeasure: Require assurance of continuity and coordination across divisions.
Required Action: Consolidate records from all relevant offices and provide a unified response.
2. ADA and Rehabilitation Act Compliance: Equal Access as a Legal Right
As a person with a documented disability, I am entitled to reasonable accommodations under the ADA and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. Your failure to provide accessible formats for requested records constitutes discrimination and violates federal law.
Case Law:
Tennessee v. Lane, 541 U.S. 509 (2004): Agencies must ensure meaningful access to government services.
Alexander v. Choate, 469 U.S. 287 (1985): Denial of reasonable accommodations creates barriers that violate civil rights.
Required Action:
Provide all requested records in accessible formats, including plain-language summaries or electronic files compatible with assistive technologies.
Confirm compliance with ADA requirements by [specific date].
3. Mandated Reporting and Whistleblower Protections
Your handling of this request implicates broader concerns, including potential fraud, misuse of federal funds, or retaliation against whistleblowers. Under the Whistleblower Protection Act (5 U.S.C. 2302), you are required to report and address systemic violations.
Countermeasure: Reference Misprision of Felony (18 U.S.C. 4), which requires the reporting of observed violations of law.
Required Action: Document and escalate evidence of misconduct to oversight bodies, including the Office of Inspector General (OIG).
4. Consequences of Non-Compliance
Failure to comply with your statutory obligations knowingly constitutes violations of:
Obstruction of Justice (18 U.S.C. 1505): Delaying lawful access to records obstructs public accountability.
Civil Rights Violations (42 U.S.C. 1983): Denying ADA accommodations constitutes a deprivation of federally protected rights.
Misprision of Felony (18 U.S.C. 4): Concealing or failing to report observed violations is a criminal act.
Countermeasure: Prepare for judicial review, oversight complaints, and public advocacy if compliance fails.
5. Escalation Pathways
If your office does not comply within the specified timeframe, I will escalate this matter through:
Judicial Review: Filing a lawsuit under 5 U.S.C. 552(a)(4)(B) to compel disclosure.
Oversight Complaints: Submitting formal complaints to OGIS, OIG, and the DOJ Civil Rights Division.
Public Advocacy: Engaging investigative journalists, transparency advocates, and public interest organizations to ensure accountability.
6. Final Statement: Upholding Transparency and Accountability
This matter reflects the publics right to transparency and the preservation of trust in government institutions. Your actions will either affirm your agencys commitment to accountability or further evidence systemic disregard for these principles.
I look forward to your prompt and substantive response.
