Overview

Address Denial Reasons, Provide Additional Evidence, and Lay the Groundwork for the Hearing

A good Medicaid hearing brief sums up the case, counters reasons for denial, anticipates potential questions and objections, and provides supporting evidence - all in a concise form. It also often serves as a reference point during the hearing. This brief course reviews actual briefs to demonstrate what works and what doesn't, and to provide drafting starters for attendees. Power up your drafting skills and improve your clients' chances at Medicaid hearings - register today!

  • Identify what must (and should) be included in the brief.
  • Learn how to directly confront each reason for denial mentioned in the notice.
  • Discuss what sample documents to include.
  • Strengthen your arguments: clearly lay out your case with supporting evidence.
  • Zero in on the most common brief writing mistakes that derail hearings.
