SUMMARY AS SUBMITTED

BY PROMULGATING AGENCY.

The amendments to R.6115 will support the Department’s goal of administering the Certificate of Need Program in a more efficient and costeffective manner. To that end, the Department oversaw the development of a webbased application to replace the existing paperbased application. The computerization of the application will both simplify and speed the application submission and review process.

A Notice of Drafting for these proposed amendments was published in the State Register on November 28, 2014.
