§ 2430.182. Delinquent payments.
(a) If payment is not received at the end of the following 30-day period—(60 days after issue date of the invoice)—or if the vendor is repeatedly delinquent in payment during a 6 month period, the vendor shall be placed on probation for 90 days effective that date. The vendor shall be advised of the action by letter from the Office of Blindness and Visual Services (BVS) and that removal action will be taken if all rental payments are not current by the end of the probation period—180 days after issue date of rental invoice.
(b) If the vendor account is not current at the end of the probationary period, BVS will forward a letter to the vendor with the following information:
(1) The vendor is to be dismissed from the program effective on the date that a replacement vendor is selected.
(2) The vendor may appeal his dismissal and receive a Fair Hearing.
(3) The amount due for nonpayment of rental fees will be deducted from the proceeds of the sale of the inventory of the facility.
(c) The delinquency of the vendor for the rental fee shall be fully investigated from its outset by BVS, and every effort shall be made to resolve the problems of the delinquency before a decision is made to dismiss the vendor.
