If during an investigation or survey Division staff document violations of hospice program licensing laws or conditions of participation, the Division may issue a statement of deficiencies that cites the law alleged to have been violated and the facts supporting the allegation.(2)
A signed plan of correction must be received by the Division within 10 business days from the date the statement of deficiencies was mailed to the hospice program. A signed plan of correction will not be used by the Division as an admission of the violations alleged in the statement of deficiencies.(3)
A hospice program shall correct all deficiencies within 45 days from the date of the exit conference, unless an extension of time is requested from the Division. A request for such an extension shall be submitted in writing and must accompany the plan of correction.(4)
The Division shall determine if a written plan of correction is acceptable. If the plan of correction is not acceptable to the Division, the Division shall notify the hospice program administrator in writing and request that the plan of correction be modified and resubmitted no later than 10 working days from the date the letter of non-acceptance was mailed to the administrator.(5)
If the hospice program does not come into compliance by the date of correction reflected on the plan of correction or 45 days from date of the exit conference, whichever is sooner, the Division may propose to deny, suspend, or revoke the hospice program license, or impose civil penalties.
