§411.370 Does a State VR agency ever have to function as an EN?

A State VR agency does not have to function as an EN when serving a beneficiary with a ticket if the ticket has not previously been assigned to an EN or State VR agency or, if it has been previously assigned, we have not made payment under an EN payment system with respect to that ticket. However, as described in §411.585(b), a State VR agency is precluded from being paid under the cost reimbursement payment system if an EN or a State VR agency serving a beneficiary as an EN has been paid by us under one of the EN payment systems with respect to the same ticket.
