245C.25 CONSOLIDATED RECONSIDERATION OF MALTREATMENT
DETERMINATION AND DISQUALIFICATION.
(a) If an individual is disqualified on the basis of a determination of maltreatment under
section 626.556 or 626.557, which was serious or recurring, and the individual requests
reconsideration of the maltreatment determination under section 626.556, subdivision 10i,
or 626.557, subdivision 9d, and also requests reconsideration of the disqualification under
section 245C.21, the commissioner shall consolidate the reconsideration of the maltreatment
determination and the disqualification into a single reconsideration.
(b) For maltreatment and disqualification determinations made by county agencies,
the county agency shall conduct the consolidated reconsideration. If the county agency has
disqualified an individual on multiple bases, one of which is a county maltreatment determination
for which the individual has a right to request reconsideration, the county shall conduct the
reconsideration of all disqualifications.
(c) If the county has previously conducted a consolidated reconsideration under paragraph (b)
of a maltreatment determination and a disqualification based on serious or recurring maltreatment,
and the county subsequently disqualifies the individual based on that determination, the county
shall conduct the reconsideration of the subsequent disqualification. The scope of the subsequent
disqualification shall be limited to whether the individual poses a risk of harm in accordance
with section 245C.22, subdivision 4.
