Start here

Resolve a BHDD-OIDD complaint or service dispute

Before you start

  • Issue summary, dates, people contacted, requested correction, supporting records, notice if any, current risk, prior resolution attempts, and desired response.

Who to contact

Start with the official BHDD-OIDD intake line or the assigned intake, autism eligibility, or case-management contact. Use the complete notice for reconsideration or appeal and the setting-specific protective-report route for abuse.

Request OIDD eligibility

Step by step

  1. Work with the case manager and provider management when safe and appropriate.
  2. Contact OIDD for assistance when agreement is not reached and preserve proof.
  3. Keep reconsideration, Medicaid appeal, and abuse reporting separate when any applies.

Expected next

A complaint contact, meeting, written response, requested review, corrective action, or closure.

Save this proof

Issue log, complaint, submissions, delivery proof, responses, reviews, and corrections.

If this stalls or the answer is no

Ask OIDD complaint resolution to confirm ownership, status, and the next event while preserving other routes.
