016.06.79-7. Sanctions
The Division will sanction medical transportation providers that fail to comply with Ark Code Ann. § 20-77-2801 et seq., these rules, or both. If a medical transportation provider fails to timely pay the full amount of a quarterly assessment, the Division shall add to the assessment:
(A) A penalty assessment equal to five percent (5%) of the quarterly amount not paid on or before the due date; and
(B) An additional five percent (5%) penalty assessment on any unpaid quarterly and unpaid penalty assessment amounts remaining on the last day of each quarter after the due date until the assessed amount and the penalties are paid in full.
Payments will be credited first to unpaid quarterly amounts, rather than to penalty or interest amounts, beginning with the most delinquent installment.
Any fee or penalty assessment imposed under these rules, as authorized by the Ark. Code Ann. § 20-77-2801 et seq., shall accrue interest at the maximum rate permitted by law from the date the fee or penalty assessment is imposed until the medical transportation provider pays the fee or penalty assessment.
For the purposes of these rules, “postmarked” will mean dated for delivery to the Division and submitted to the appropriate carrier by whatever means designated by the Division, including electronic or other means.
