Pursuant to ORS 65.809(2), the Attorney General may approve a proposed hospital transaction with conditions. In the event the party to whom the transfer is made determines that, due to unforeseen circumstances, the conditions of the order should be amended, the party shall make application to the Attorney General for amendment of the prior order.

(1) The application for amendment shall be accompanied by an application fee equal to 10% of the original application fee or $1,000, whichever is greater. The terms for payment of the fee to the Attorney General and reimbursement of any excess fee to the applicant shall be the same as provided in OAR 137-015-0005.

(2) A request for an amendment shall include a description of each proposed amendment, a description of the change in circumstance requiring each such amendment, a description of how each such amendment is consistent with the Attorney General's conditioned approval of the transaction, and a description of the efforts of the entity making the request to avoid the need for amendment.

(3) In considering whether to grant the request for amendment, the Attorney General shall follow the same public hearing procedures as described in ORS 65.807 and shall issue an order according to the same time constraints as provided in ORS 65.809(1) with regard to the initial application.
