Section 410-2-4-.01 - Introduction

This chapter focuses on existing health care facilities and the need for additional facilities. Methodologies for many facilities, i.e., general hospitals, nursing homes, specialty care assisted living facilities, rehabilitation, psychiatric and substance abuse, are specific in nature and project a finite number of beds needed. Swing beds, Long Term Acute Care Hospital beds, and Critical Care Access Hospital beds are allowed for hospitals which meet the criteria as specified in the appropriate Federal Directive. The home health methodology is based on upon a minimum level of utilization.
