§ 1027.10. Notification of deficiencies to applicants.
(a) Upon completion of an inspection under an application for a license, registration of a license or an amendment of a license, the inspector shall provide the applicant with an inspection report specifying the results of the inspection.
(b) If the inspection reveals deficiencies that can be corrected and the inspector determines that the deficiencies warrant a reinspection, the inspector shall give the applicant written notice of the matters to be reinspected and copy the Department on the notice.
(c) If the type of deficiency requires a plan of correction, the applicant shall have 30 days in which to provide the inspector with a plan to correct the deficiency. If the plan is found to be acceptable by the regional EMS council, the inspector will conduct a reinspection in accordance with the time frame given in the plan of correction.
(d) If the applicant disagrees with a deficiency cited by the inspector following the inspection or reinspection, or the regional EMS council’s rejection of a plan of correction, the applicant shall apprise the Department of the matter in dispute in writing within 10 days of the inspection or rejection of the plan of correction and the Department will resolve the dispute within 30 days of receipt of the written notification.
(e) The Department will act upon the application within 30 days after the inspection process has been completed, unless the Department requires additional time to complete an investigation of those qualifications of the applicant which cannot, for just cause, be determined through the inspection process.
(f) Nothing in this section shall be construed to preclude the Department from identifying to the EMS agency statutory or regulatory violations not identified by the inspector, or from requiring the EMS agency to file a plan of correction to correct those deficiencies or taking immediate action to correct those deficiencies, or from taking disciplinary action against an EMS agency for a statutory or regulatory violation that cannot be corrected or for which the Department determines that disciplinary action best serves the public interest.
