Haw. Code R. § 17-1736-70 - Continuances or further hearings for hospital and institutional providers
(a) At any time during the administrative
hearing, if the hearing officer determines that the hearing shall be held at
another time or at any other location in the State, the hearing officer shall
have discretion to continue the hearing.
(b) If the hearing officer determines at any
point in the hearing that it is necessary to seek additional evidence, the
hearing may be continued at a later date or one or both parties may be directed
to seek further evidence, provided the hearing officer furnish written
justification on the record for any continuance under this section lasting in
excess of thirty days. Failure of either party to provide additional evidence
as directed by the hearing officer shall not be used as the sole basis for an
adverse decision against that party on the issues presented at the hearing. In
the event that further evidence is not produced as directed, the hearing office
shall proceed to a decision based upon the entirety of the evidence presented
at the hearing.
(c) Written notice
of the time and place of any continued or additional hearings shall be given in
accordance with section 17-1736-63, except when a continuance or additional
hearing to a certain date is ordered during a hearing, then oral notice of the
time and place of the hearing shall be sufficient for all parties present at
the hearing.
