When you have been denied Medicaid or had your Medicaid Benefits lowered or terminated, you can ask for a fair hearing.

When DFCS gets your letter asking for a fair hearing, they use this form to process your appeal with the Office of State Administrative Hearings (OSAH). You can give DFCS this form and ask them to fill it out and send it to OSAH and to the Department of Human Resources Legal Services to process your appeal.
