AHA, Hospitals Oppose the Secretary Motion for Extension of Time to Reply
July 5, 2018 - PLAINTIFFS’ OPPOSITION TO DEFENDANT’S MOTION FOR AN EXTENSION OF TIME
Plaintiffs oppose the Department of Health and Human Services’s (HHS) motion for a six-week extension to file its response to Plaintiffs’ remedy proposals. HHS asserts that the extension is necessary primarily to compile additional data from the end of the most recent fiscal quarter.

And HHS’s other proffered justifications do not warrant six weeks of additional delay in this already stale case.
