Wisconsin Nursing Home Administrators (NHA) Practice Exam

Within how many days must a credential holder determined to be ineligible for the Professional Assistance Procedure request the credentialing authority to review the adverse determination?

1. 10

2. 15

3. 20

4. 30

The correct answer is: 10

A credential holder who is found to be ineligible for the Professional Assistance Procedure must request the credentialing authority to review the adverse determination within 10 days. This timeline is crucial to ensure a timely review of the adverse determination and to potentially address any issues or discrepancies that led to the determination of ineligibility. It is important for credential holders to be proactive in seeking a review to maintain transparency and accountability in the credentialing process. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they extend the timeframe for the credential holder to request a review beyond the stipulated 10-day period. Failing to request a review within the designated timeframe may result in delayed resolution of the issue or forfeiture of the opportunity to challenge the adverse determination.
