This Agreement is entered into between the parties for the purpose of avoiding the costs and burdens of litigation. 2. PROVIDER is a Medicaid provider in the State of Florida, with provider number 2506491-00. 3. In its final agency audit report dated February 11, 2002, AHCA notified PROVIDER that a review of Medicaid claims, performed by Medicaid Program Integrity (MPI), indicated that, in its opinion, some claims in whole or in part were not covered by Medicaid. The Agency sought overpayment in the amount of $10,446.32. In response to the final agency audit report, PROVIDER filed a petition for a formal administrative hearing. 4. The matter was referred to the Division of Administrative Hearings (DOAH) and assigned DOAH Case No. 02-1591. Subsequently, the matter was remanded to AHCA for review of additional information to be submitted by PROVIDER. AHCA performed a review of the additional information submitted by PROVIDER related to the disputed claims and no adjustment was made to the overpayment. 5. In order to resolve this matter without further administrative proceedings, PROVIDER and AHCA expressly agree as follows: (a) | AHCA agrees to accept the payment set forth herein in settlement of the overpayment issues arising from the MPI review. (b) Within thirty (30) days of receipt of the Agency for Health Care Administration Final Order incorporating by reference this Settlement Agreement, PROVIDER agrees to make a single payment in the amount of TEN THOUSAND FOUR HUNDRED FORTY-SIX DOLLARS AND THIRTY-TWO CENTS ($10,446.32).

(69) PROVIDER agrees that it will not rebill the Medicaid Program in any manner for claims that were not covered by Medicaid, which are the subject of the audit in this case. 6.
