OPINION

KIRSCH, Judge.

Lester Gleason II appeals the dismissal of his proposed complaint for medical malpractice against Doctor Charles Bush, Jr., Doctor John Gossard, and Lafayette Home Hospital {collectively "Providers"). (Gleason raises several issues which we restate as:

Does IC 27-12-10-18(a), which requires a medical review panel to render its expert opinion within 180 days of panel formation, mandate dismissal of a proposed complaint for medical malpractice when the plaintiff fails to file an evidentiary submission prior to the expiration of such time?

We reverse and remand.
