Certificates of public need. Creates a two-phase process to sunset certificate of public need requirements for many categories of medical care facilities and projects, with the requirement for a certificate of public need (i) for ambulatory and outpatient surgery centers other than rural ambulatory and outpatient surgery centers and for capital expenditures at medical care facilities other than rural medical care facilities repealed in effective July 1, 2016, and (ii) for all medical care facilities other than nursing homes, rehabilitation hospitals and beds, organ or tissue transplant services, certain open heart surgery services, and rural medical care facilities repealed effective January 1, 2017. The bill also creates a new permitting process for categories of facilities and projects exempted from the certificate of public need process that requires the Commissioner of Health to issue a permit but requires the Commissioner to condition a permit (a)on the agreement of the applicant to provide a specified level of care at a reduced rate to indigents, accept patients requiring specialized care, or facilitate the development and operation of primary medical care services in designated medically underserved areas of the applicant's service area and (b) on compliance of the applicant with quality of care standards. The bill also eliminates regional health planning agencies and makes numerous changes to the COPN process for facilities and projects that will still be subject to the requirement of a certificate.

Certificates of public need; creates three-phase process to sunset requirements for medical care.
