§411.650. Is there a process for resolving disputes between ENs that are not State VR agencies and PMs, other than disputes on a payment request?
20 C.F.R. § 411.650
Yes. Under the agreement to assist us in administering the Ticket to Work program, a PM is required to have procedures to resolve disputes with ENs that do not involve an EN's payment request. (See § 411.590 for the process for resolving disputes on EN payment requests.) This process must ensure that:
The EN can seek a solution through the PM's internal grievance procedures; and
If the PM's internal grievance procedures do not result in a mutually agreeable solution, the PM shall refer the dispute to us for a decision.
