(1) Civil money penalties in the amounts specified in § 438.704.
(2) Appointment of temporary management for an MCO as provided in § 438.706.
(3) Granting enrollees the right to terminate enrollment without cause and notifying the affected enrollees of their right to disenroll.
(4) Suspension of all new enrollment, including default enrollment, after the date the Secretary or the State notifies the MCO of a determination of a violation of any requirement under sections 1903(m) or 1932 of the Act.
(5) Suspension of payment for beneficiaries enrolled after the effective date of the sanction and until CMS or the State is satisfied that the reason for imposition of the sanction no longer exists and is not likely to recur.
