The Lifecycle of a Rebuttal

1. Claim Your Facility Log into your dashboard, go to "My Facilities", and claim your facility using your State License Number.
2. Draft Your Response Navigate to "My Rebuttals" and click "New Rebuttal." Fill out the form, identifying the specific Citation Number and the Date of Visit.
3. Upload Evidence (Optional) Attach supporting documents (e.g., invoices for repairs, redacted training logs). You must verify that all documents are fully redacted according to our Redaction Standards.
4. Submit for Moderation Once submitted, your rebuttal enters the "Pending" queue. It is not yet visible to the public.
5. Moderation Review Our team will review the submission strictly for PII/PHI violations. We do not judge the merit of your rebuttal.
   • If approved, the status changes to "Active" and it appears on your facility's public profile.
   • If a privacy violation is found, the status changes to "Fix Required" and it is sent back to you with notes on what needs to be redacted.
