00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:01.005
Question 93.

00:00:01.005 --> 00:00:03.418
Did any referral, payment,
credentialing, communication,

00:00:03.418 --> 00:00:06.636
inspection, or enforcement
decision change after a complaint,

00:00:06.636 --> 00:00:07.441
and what...?

00:00:07.441 --> 00:00:10.659
The 2023 report raises
a concern, not a

00:00:10.659 --> 00:00:11.061
finding.

00:00:11.061 --> 00:00:11.866
People served:

00:00:11.866 --> 00:00:15.084
Covered grievance systems must be
accessible, impartial, documented,

00:00:15.084 --> 00:00:17.900
and free from threatened
or actual retaliation.

00:00:17.900 --> 00:00:18.704
David Medeiros:

00:00:18.704 --> 00:00:20.715
Speech, petition, whistleblower,
public-record, and

00:00:20.715 --> 00:00:23.933
disability-retaliation theories each
have different actors and elements.

00:00:23.933 --> 00:00:24.738
ABI Resources:

00:00:24.738 --> 00:00:27.152
ABI may petition and
preserve evidence;

00:00:27.152 --> 00:00:29.967
contract retaliation and
constitutional retaliation are related

00:00:29.967 --> 00:00:31.174
but not interchangeable.

00:00:31.174 --> 00:00:33.185
Constitutional claims
need state action;

00:00:33.185 --> 00:00:36.404
beneficiary choice does not
guarantee ABI referrals or

00:00:36.404 --> 00:00:37.208
a contract.

00:00:37.208 --> 00:00:40.024
Classify the issue
before choosing a remedy.

00:00:40.024 --> 00:00:42.840
Preserve complaint intake, routing,
preservation, decision-makers, case

00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:45.656
files, responses, timing,
referrals, and adverse actions.

00:00:45.656 --> 00:00:48.471
Apply Constitution, statute,
regulation, contract, then record.
