Synopsis As Introduced
Amends Illinois Health Facilities Planning Act. Provides that the Health Facilities and Services Review Board may review the applicable criteria in the consideration of any application for an exemption submitted under the Act. Provides that, upon review and consideration, the State Board may approve, deny, or defer for additional information an application for a Certificate of Need or Certificate of Exemption. Makes changes in provisions concerning administrative hearings; powers and duties of State Board; powers of the State Board staff; and review and investigation of applications for permits.

House Floor Amendment No. 1
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Provides that an exemption for discontinuation of a category of service shall be approved after the required information is submitted to the Health Facilities and Services Review Board (rather than the exemption may be approved, denied, or deferred for additional information). Provides that the State Board shall designate by rule any additional documentation required to consider an application for change of ownership. Provides that, if the State Board denies or fails to approve an application for permit or exemption, the State Board shall, upon request by the applicant, include in the final decision a detailed explanation as to why the application was denied and identify what specific criteria or standards the applicant did not fulfill. Sets forth additional provisions concerning public hearings. Makes other changes.
