Kan. Admin. Regs. § 30-60-5 - Two types of license; requirements
(a) Two types of
license shall be issued by the secretary in accordance with this article. One
shall be titled "community mental health center." The other shall be titled
"affiliated community mental health center." To be eligible for either license,
the applicant agency shall demonstrate that it can and will comply with all of
the applicable requirements contained within this article. However, the
applicant agency shall not be required to meet the requirements contained
within article 61 that provide for those additional services and programs that
a center must be capable of and willing to provide in order to be eligible to
contract with the secretary to become a participating community mental health
center.
(b)
(1) Only one license shall be issued by the
secretary to operate a "community mental health center" within a designated
service area, which shall be stated upon the license issued.
(2) If the board of county commissioners for
any county within the service area of a licensed center, pursuant to
K.S.A. 19-4001 and amendments thereto, notifies the
secretary of the board's withdrawal of its designation of that licensed center
as the community mental health center for that county and requests that the
secretary either approve the establishment of a new community mental health
center for that county, as provided for in K.A.R. 30-60-10, or approve the
realignment of the service area of another existing licensed center to include
that county within its service area, as provided for in K.A.R. 30-60-12, and if
the secretary approves either request, then at least one of the following
actions shall be taken by the division:
(A)
If the secretary's action involves the establishment of a new community mental
health center to replace the existing licensed center and that existing center
will not afterwards be serving any other county, the license of the existing
center from which the board of county commissioners withdrew its designation
shall be revoked.
(B) If the
secretary's action involves the realignment of the service area of one or more
existing licensed centers, a new license shall be issued to each involved
center. Each new license shall state upon it the new service area of that
center.
(c)
Each agency meeting the exception specified in
K.S.A. 75-3307b(b), and amendments
thereto, shall be exempted from the limitation stated in subsection (b) above
and may be licensed as an "affiliated community mental health center," if it
complies with all of the following:
(1) The
agency has an affiliation agreement, as specified in K.A.R. 30-60-29, with each
center within whose service area the agency provides any services.
(2) The agency makes regular and timely
applications for renewal of its license.
(3) The agency is at all times in compliance
with all of the applicable requirements of this article, including those
applicable to the services and programs it has agreed to provide in its
affiliation agreement with any center.
