b. Right to an Administrative Hearing

Parents shall have the right to request an administrative hearing if they are aggrieved by an action taken by the department, except in situations specified in subdivision (d)(2) of this section. Child care providers shall not have the right to an administrative hearing. A parent may request an administrative hearing if the parent is aggrieved by an action taken against a child care provider to the extent such action was not the result of a decision by the Department of Public Health to deny, suspend or revoke the provider’s license.

The request for an administrative hearing shall be made within sixty days of the date the parent was provided with written notice of the action.
