When do review judges conduct the hearing and enter final orders?

(1) Review judges conduct the hearing and enter the final order in cases where a contractor for the delivery of nursing facility services requests an administrative hearing under WAC 388-96-904(5). Any party dissatisfied with a decision or an order of dismissal of a review judge may request reconsideration from the review judge as provided by this chapter and WAC 388-96-904(12). Following a review judge's decision, you, but not DSHS, may file a petition for judicial review as provided by this chapter and WAC 388-96-904(13).

(2) A review judge has the same authority as an ALJ, as described in WAC 388-02-0215, when conducting a hearing.
