(a) The Texas
Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) shall send written notice of
license expiration to a limited services rural hospital (LSRH) at least 60
calendar days before the expiration date of the license. If the LSRH has not
received notice, it is the LSRH's duty to notify HHSC and request a renewal
notice.
(b) The LSRH shall submit
the following to HHSC before the license expiration date:
(1) a complete and accurate
application;
(2) a copy of two fire
inspections that are conducted and approved by an individual certified by the
Texas Commission on Fire Protection to conduct fire inspections and meet the
requirements of §
511.141 of this chapter (relating
to Fire Prevention and Protection), one from within the last 12 months and one
from the year before, as the LSRH must obtain an approved fire inspection
annually;
(3) the renewal license
fee; and
(4) if the applicant is
accredited by a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services-approved
organization, a copy of documentation from the accrediting body showing the
current accreditation status of the hospital.
(c) HHSC may conduct an inspection before
issuing a renewal license in accordance with §
511.112 of this chapter (relating
to Inspections).
(d) Subject to
subsection (g) of this section, HHSC shall issue a renewal license to an LSRH
that meets the requirements for a license.
(e) Renewal licenses will be valid for two
years from the previous expiration date.
(f) If an LSRH fails to submit the
application, documents, and fee by the expiration date of the LSRH's license,
HHSC shall notify the LSRH that it must cease operation and immediately return
the license to HHSC. If the LSRH intends to provide services after the
expiration date of the license, HHSC may require the LSRH to apply for a
license under §
511.12 of this subchapter
(relating to Application and Issuance of Initial License).
(g) Denial of a renewal license shall be
governed by §
511.121 of this chapter (relating
