of a claim. The claimant sends the request in writing, to the settlement 
authority within a reasonable time following the initial settlement or 
denial. Sixty days is considered a reasonable time, but the settlement 
authority may waive the time limit for good cause.
    (a) The original settlement authority reviews the reconsideration 
request. The settlement authority sends the entire claim file with 
recommendations and supporting rationale to the next higher settlement 
authority if all relief the claimant requests is not granted.
    (b) The decision of the higher settlement authority is the final 
administrative action on the claim.
