The commissioner or the voluntary, nonprofit reporting organization approved by the commissioner shall review each report submitted under this chapter to determine if the report is complete. "Complete" means that the report contains adequate data in a form that will allow further review and verification of the accuracy of the report. A report is considered submitted when the commissioner or the approved voluntary, nonprofit organization has determined that the report is complete.
If the commissioner or the voluntary, nonprofit reporting organization approved by the commissioner does not respond to the facility within 30 calendar days after receiving a report, the report is considered complete and submitted on the day the commissioner or approved voluntary, nonprofit reporting organization received the report.
A report that the commissioner or the voluntary, nonprofit reporting organization approved by the commissioner determines to be incomplete must be returned within three business days of the determination to the hospital, psychiatric hospital, specialized hospital, or outpatient surgical center with a statement describing the report's deficiencies. The facility shall correct the deficiencies and resubmit the report within ten business days or request an extension according to part 4650.0130, subpart 6. If the resubmitted report is determined to be complete, it is considered complete and submitted on the date the resubmitted report was received.
If the commissioner discovers a significant error in a submitted report, the commissioner shall require the hospital, psychiatric hospital, specialized hospital, or outpatient surgical center to provide corrections by a date agreed upon by the commissioner and the facility.
