To Whom It May Concern:
I wanted to follow up on the following Arizona Public Records request, copied below, and originally submitted on July 30, 2018. Please let me know when I can expect to receive a response, or if further clarification is needed.
Thanks for your help, and let me know if further clarification is needed.
From: Health Care Cost Containment System
Good morning,
Arizona Revised Statute 36-2917 mandates that concerns that are sent via the CQM@azahcccs.gov<mailto:CQM@azahcccs.gov> email address are confidential and may not be disclosed. Any review and investigation of the conduct of licensed health care providers in order to determine whether disciplinary action should be imposed is confidential.
Complaints submitted to RHBA's and health plans are handled at the RHBA's and health plan level and are not elevated to AHCCCS. We have no responsive documents.
AHCCCS has addressed your request and feels this matter is complete and there is no need to address it on an ongoing basis.
Sincerely,
Kathryn Greene
