SCF is an alternative dispute resolution process at Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals (OMHA) that gives certain providers and suppliers an opportunity to resolve their eligible Part A and Part B appeals. All Medicare Part A and Medicare Part B providers and suppliers who are waiting appeal reviews at the Administrative Law Judge level or Medicare Appeals Council level could potentially be eligible to participate in the SCF.
