Implementing Judicial Review Decisions

Once the judicial review decision has been recorded, it must be implemented. The system sends a notification to the judicial review case owner that a decision has been made and approved for the appeal.

It is the responsibility of the owner of each application/product delivery case or issue case where a judicial review decision has been made to implement the decision. The system creates a task and assigns it to the owner of each related appealed item to implement the decision for the appeal.

For decisions with a resolution of accepted, the owner must override the denied program application, product delivery or issue case decision to reflect the appeal decision.

There are three ways to override the original decision: override the evidence recorded on the application, case or issue case, override the eligibility decision, or override the payment details if applicable. The owner may override the existing rate of payment on the case with the rate of payment determined by the evidence presented at the completed hearing on the judicial review.

Judicial review decisions with a resolution of rejected, remanded, or not decided do not require the owner to override evidence, eligibility, or payment details as the decision on the original item being appealed is upheld. However, if a judicial review resolution is remanded the system notifies the judicial review owner and the original appealed item owner informing them that a new appeal must be created to reconsider the case.

Once the decision resolution has been implemented on the appealed item, the judicial review appeals process is complete.
