CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 30, § 300.3
The Responsibilities of the QIO
When an IRE notifies the QIO that a beneficiary has requested an expedited
reconsideration, the QIO must supply all information that the IRE needs to make its
expedited reconsideration as soon as possible, but no later than by close of business of the
day that the IRE notifies the QIO of the request for the reconsideration.
At the beneficiary’s request, the QIO must furnish the beneficiary with a copy of, or
access to, any documentation that it sends to the IRE. The QIO may charge the
beneficiary a reasonable amount to cover the costs of duplicating the documentation
and/or delivering it to the beneficiary. The QIO must accommodate the request by no
later than close of business of the first day after the material is requested.

Unofficial copy of government-published law, reproduced from official sources with full provenance. Not an official publication; verify against official sources before relying on it in a filing. Records in the 'guidance' corpus, and only that corpus, are sub-regulatory (interpretive guidelines, survey procedures) and are not binding law. Validity bounds follow each jurisdiction's declared temporalBasis.
