# §890.1067. Provider contests of proposed penalties and assessments.

- (a) **Contesting proposed sanctions.** A provider may formally contest the proposed penalties and assessments by sending a written notice to the debarring official within 30 days after receiving the notice described in [§ 890.1066](/cfr/5/890.1066.md). The debarring official must apply the administrative procedures set forth in §§ [890.1069](/cfr/5/890.1069.md) and [890.1070](/cfr/5/890.1070.md) to decide the contest.
- (b) **Contesting debarments and financial sanctions concurrently.** If OPM proposes debarment and penalties and assessments in the same notice, the provider may contest both the debarment and the financial sanctions in the same proceeding. If the provider pursues a combined contest, the requirements set forth in [§§ 890.1022 through 890.1024](/cfr/5/890.1022..890.1024.md), as well as this section, apply.
- (c) **Settling or compromising proposed sanctions.** The debarring official may settle or compromise proposed sanctions at any time before issuing a final decision under [§ 890.1070](/cfr/5/890.1070.md).
