A significant decision is a Health Care Authority (HCA) Board of Appeals (BOA) final order* that has an analysis or decision of substantial importance to HCA in carrying out its duties. A significant decision is precedential, which means that future parties, administrative law judges, and review judges may rely on it in similar cases.
