Exceptions to “Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies” Requirement Not Applicable—“Futility” and “Irreparable Harm” Not Demonstrated

The Third Department determined that petitioner (a nursing home) could not, via an Article 78 proceeding, involve the courts to contest the Department of Health’s (DOH’s) calculation of Medicaid reimbursement rates because petitioner did not first exhaust every available administrative remedy.  The exceptions to the exhaustion requirement, futility and irreparable harm, did not apply:

It is well settled that an administrative agency’s determination must be challenged through every available administrative remedy before it can be challenged in the courts … . The narrow exceptions to this requirement include, as relevant here, where an administrative challenge would be futile or the petitioner can demonstrate irreparable harm … . Neither exception has been demonstrated. Matter of Schenectady Nursing & Rehabilitation Ctr LLC, v Shah, 2015 NY Slip Op 00425, 3rd Dept 1-15-15
