55 Pa. Code § 5210.5 - Application review process
(a) Any
facility intending to provide partial hospitalization services shall file an
application for a certificate of compliance with the Department under Chapter
20 (relating to licensure or approval of facilities and agencies). A facility
shall meet both the requirements of Chapter 20 and this chapter to obtain a
certificate. Submission of an application does not constitute a certificate to
operate pending Departmental approval. Facilities shall be inspected a minimum
of once per year, but are subject to visit by the Department's designee at
other times to ensure continuing conformance of the operations of the facility
with these regulations. The Department may request the facility to provide
information concerning programs and fiscal operations at the Department's
discretion.
(b) Programs currently
operating under preexisting approval shall have 3 months after the effective
date of this chapter to meet the requirements found in this chapter. Programs
requesting a certificate under this chapter have 6 months to meet the minimum
size of program section of these standards. Other program requirements as set
forth in this chapter shall be met before a certificate can be
granted.
