§ 55.103. Responsibility for identification of health care facilities subject to advance notice.
(a) Utility responsibility for existing customers. The Commission’s Bureau will obtain from the Departments of Aging, Health and Public Welfare current listings of the name, address, county, telephone number, and if available, the name of the administrator or contact person for each health care facility licensed by the respective regulatory agency. The Departments of Aging, Health and Public Welfare should each provide to the Commission’s Bureau an annual revised and updated listing of licensed health care facilities. Each utility subject to this subchapter is responsible for identifying its customers from these listings and for appropriately coding its records so as to assure compliance with this subchapter.
(b) Utility responsibility for new service applicants. When a nonresidential applicant applies for utility service, the utility shall ascertain whether that applicant is a health care facility subject to this subchapter, code its records appropriately if the applicant is a health care facility and identify the name, job title or office, address, telephone number and facsimile number of a designated individual. The utility shall inform the health care facility of its continuing obligation to notify the utility of any change in information regarding the designated individual.
(c) Health care facility responsibility. The health care facility is responsible for providing to the utility a copy of its current license or operating certificate issued by its regulatory agency, if requested, so that the utility can verify the identification of the customer as a health care facility. The health care facility is responsible for providing to the utility current information regarding the designated individual, as well as informing the utility of any changes in this information. The health care facility is responsible for providing to the utility documentation and information within 10 days of the utility’s request.
