    Section 3. Hospital subareas

     

    Sec. 3. (1)(a)  Each existing hospital is assigned to a hospital subarea as set forth in Appendix A which is incorporated as part of these standards, until Appendix A is revised pursuant to this subsection.

    (i)      These hospital subareas, and the assignments of hospitals to subareas, shall be updated, at the direction of the Commission, starting in may 2003, to be completed no later than November 2003. Thereafter, at the direction of the Commission, the updates shall occur no later than two years after the official date of the federal decennial census, provided that:

    (A) Population data at the federal zip code level, derived from the federal decennial census, are available; and final MIDB data are available to the Department for that same census year.

    (b) For an application involving a proposed new licensed site for a hospital (whether new or replacement), the proposed new licensed site shall be assigned to an existing hospital subarea utilizing a market survey conducted by the applicant and submitted with the application. The market survey shall provide, at a minimum, forecasts of the number of inpatient discharges for each zip code that the proposed new licensed site shall provide service. The forecasted numbers must be for the same year as the base year MIDB data. The market survey shall be completed by the applicant using accepted standard statistical methods. The market survey, if determined by the Department to be reasonable pursuant to Section 14, shall be used by the Department to assign the proposed new site to an existing subarea as follows:

    (i)      For the proposed new site, a market forecast factor for each of the zip codes identified in the application will be computed. Zip codes with a market forecast factor of less than .05 will be deleted from consideration.

    (ii)      The base year MIDB data will be used to compute discharge relevance factors (%Rs) for each hospital subarea for each of the zip codes identified in step (i) above. Hospital subareas with a %R of less than .05 for all zip codes identified in step (i) will be deleted from the computation.

    (iii)     For each of the zip codes identified in step (i), compare %Rs among subareas identified in step (ii). The hospital subarea with the largest %R will have the entire zip code assigned to that subarea.

    (iv)     The base year total zip code population allocations corresponding to the assignments in step (iii) to a specific hospital subarea are multiplied by the %N calculated in step (i) for that zip code. The results of all multiplications within a hospital subarea are added together to obtain a subarea total.

    (v)      The hospital subarea with the largest total calculated in step (iv) shall have the proposed new licensed site assigned to that subarea.

     

    (2)   The Commission shall amend Appendix A to reflect: (a) approved new licensed site(s) assigned to a specific hospital subarea; (b) hospital closures; and (c) licensure action(s) as appropriate.

     

     

    (3)    As directed by the Commission, new sub-area assignments established according to subsection (1)(a)(i) shall supersede Appendix A and shall be included as an amended appendix to these standards effective on the date determined by the Commission.

     

    Section 4. Determination of the needed hospital bed supply

     

    Sec. 4. (1) The determination of the needed hospital bed supply for a hospital subarea for a planning year shall be made using the MIDB and population estimates and projections by zip code in the following methodology:

    (a)     All hospital discharges for normal newborns (drg 391) and psychiatric patients (icd-9-cm codes 290 through 319 as a principal diagnosis) will be excluded.

    (b)     The statewide patient day use rates for ages 0 (excluding normal newborns) through 14 (pediatric), ages 15 through 64, ages 65 through 74, and 75 and older are calculated using the base year midb data.

    (c)     For each hospital subarea, calculate the relevance index (%Z) for each zip code and each age group used by the subarea.

    (d)    For each hospital subarea, multiply each zip code %Z calculated in (c) by its respective base year zip code and age group specific year population. The result will be the zip code allocations by age group for each subarea.

    (e)      For each hospital subarea, calculate the subarea base year population by age group by adding together all zip code population allocations calculated in (d) for each specific age group in that subarea. The result will be four population age groups for each zip code in the subarea.

    (f)    For each hospital subarea, calculate the patient day use rates for ages 0 (excluding normal newborns) through 14 (pediatric), ages 15 through 64, ages 65 through 74, and ages 75 and older by using results of the calculations in (e). Data from non-Michigan residents are to be included for each specific age group.

    (g)    For each hospital subarea, compare the use rates calculated in (c) with (b). For each age group, use the lesser of the statewide rate or the subarea specific rate.

    (h)     For each hospital subarea, multiply each zip code %Z calculated in (c) by its respective planning year zip code and age group specific year population. The results will be the projected zip code allocations by age group for each subarea.

    (i)     For each hospital subarea, calculate the subarea projected year population by age group by adding together all projected zip code population allocations calculated in (h) for each specific age group. The result will be four population age groups for each zip code in the subarea.

    (j)      For each hospital subarea, calculate the subarea projected patient days for each age group by multiplying the four projected populations by age group calculated in step (i) by the age specific use rates identified in step (g).

    (k)    For each hospital subarea, calculate the total subarea projected patient days by adding together each age group specific projected patient days calculated in (j).

    (l)    For each hospital subarea, calculate the subarea projected average daily census (adc) by dividing the results calculated in (k) by 365 (or 366 if the planning year is a leap year).

    (m)     For each hospital subarea, select the appropriate subarea occupancy rate from the occupancy rate table in Appendix D.

    (n)     For each hospital subarea, calculate the subarea projected bed need number of hospital beds for the subarea by dividing the adc calculated in (l) by the appropriate occupancy rate determined in (m). Round any part of a bed up to a whole bed.

     

    Section 5. Bed Need

     

     

    Sec. 5. (1) The bed-need numbers incorporated as part of these standards as Appendix C shall apply to projects subject to review under these standards, except where a specific certificate of need review standard states otherwise.

     

    (2)     The Commission shall direct the Department, effective  November 2004 and every  two years thereafter, to re-calculate the acute care bed need methodology in Section 4, within a specified time frame.

     

    (3)   The Commission shall designate the base year and the future planning year which shall be utilized in applying the methodology pursuant to subsection (2).

     

    (4)     When the Department is directed by the Commission to apply the methodology pursuant to subsection (2), the effective date of the bed-need numbers shall be established by the Commission.

     

    (5)   As directed by the Commission, new bed-need numbers established by subsections (2) and (3) shall supersede the bed-need numbers shown in Appendix C and shall be included as an amended appendix to these standards.

     

    Section 6. Requirements for approval -- new beds in a hospital

     

    Sec. 6. (1) An applicant proposing new beds in a hospital, except an applicant meeting the requirements of subsection 2, 3, or 4, shall demonstrate that it meets all of the following:

    (a)     The new beds in a hospital shall result in a hospital of at least 200 beds in a non-rural county or 50 beds in a rural county. This subsection may be waived by the Department if the Department determines, in its sole discretion, that a smaller hospital is necessary or appropriate to assure access to health-care services.

    (b)     The total number of existing hospital beds in the subarea to which the new beds will be assigned does not currently exceed the needed hospital bed supply as set forth in Appendix C. The Department shall determine the subarea to which the beds will be assigned in accord with Section 3 of these standards.

    (c)     Approval of the proposed new beds in a hospital shall not result in the total number of existing hospital beds, in the subarea to which the new beds will be assigned, exceeding the needed hospital bed supply as set forth in Appendix C. The Department shall determine the subarea to which the beds will be assigned in accord with Section 3 of these standards.

     

    (2)   An applicant proposing to begin operation as a new long-term (acute) care hospital or alcohol and substance abuse hospital within an existing licensed, host hospital shall demonstrate that it meets all of the requirements of this subsection:

    (a)     If the long-term (acute) care hospital applicant described in this subsection does not meet the Title XVIII requirements of the Social Security Act for exemption from PPS as a long-term (acute) care hospital within 12 months after beginning operation, then it may apply for a six-month extension in accordance with R325.9403 of the certificate of need rules. If the applicant fails to meet the Title XVIII requirements for PPS exemption as a long-term (acute) care hospital within the 12 or 18-month period, then the certificate of need granted pursuant to this section shall expire automatically.

    (b)    The patient care space and other space to establish the new hospital is being obtained through a lease arrangement between the applicant and the host hospital. The initial, renewed, or any subsequent lease shall specify at least all of the following:

     

     

    (i)    That the host hospital shall delicense the same number of hospital beds proposed by the applicant for licensure in the new hospital.

    (ii)    That the proposed new beds shall be for use in space currently licensed as part of the host hospital.

    (iii)    That upon non-renewal and/or termination of the lease, upon termination of the license issued under Part 215 of the act to the applicant for the new hospital, or upon noncompliance with the project delivery requirements or any other applicable requirements of these standards, the beds licensed as part of the new hospital must be disposed of by one of the following means:

    (A)   Relicensure of the beds to the host hospital. The host hospital must obtain a certificate of need to acquire the long-term (acute) care hospital. In the event that the host hospital applies for a certificate of need to acquire the long-term (acute) care hospital [including the beds leased by the host hospital to the long-term (acute) care hospital] within six months following the termination of the lease with the long- term (acute) care hospital, it shall not be required to be in compliance with the hospital bed supply set forth in Appendix C if the host hospital proposes to add the beds of the long-term (acute) care hospital to the host hospital's medical/surgical licensed capacity and the application meets all other applicable project delivery requirements. The beds must be used for general medical/surgical purposes. Such an application shall not be subject to comparative review and shall be processed under the procedures for non-substantive review (as this will not be considered an increase in the number of beds originally licensed to the applicant at the host hospital);

    (B)  Delicensure of the hospital beds; or

    (C)    Acquisition by another entity that obtains a certificate of need to acquire the new hospital in its entirety and that entity must meet and shall stipulate to the requirements specified in Section 6(2).

    (c)    The applicant or the current licensee of the new hospital shall not apply, initially or subsequently, for certificate of need approval to initiate any other certificate of need covered clinical services; provided, however, that this section is not intended, and shall not be construed in a manner which would prevent the licensee from contracting and/or billing for medically necessary covered clinical services required by its patients under arrangements with its host hospital or any other certificate of need approved provider of covered clinical services.

    (d)    The new licensed hospital shall remain within the host hospital.

    (e)    The new hospital shall be assigned to the same subarea as the host hospital.

    (f)    The proposed project to begin operation of a new hospital, under this subsection, shall constitute a change in bed capacity under Section 1(3) of these standards.

    (g)    The lease will not result in an increase in the number of licensed hospital beds in the subarea.

    (h)     Applications proposing a new hospital under this subsection shall not be subject to comparative review.

     

    (3)   An applicant proposing to add new hospital beds, as the receiving licensed hospital under Section 8, shall demonstrate that it meets all of the requirements of this subsection and shall not be required to be in compliance with the needed hospital bed supply set forth in Appendix C if the application meets all other applicable certificate of need review standards and agrees and assures to comply with all applicable project delivery requirements.

    (a)     The approval of the proposed new hospital beds shall not result in an increase in the number of licensed hospital beds in the subarea.

    (b)     The proposed project to add new hospital beds, under this subsection, shall constitute a change in bed capacity under Section 1(3) of these standards.

    (c)      Applicants proposing to add new hospital beds under this subsection shall not be subject to comparative review.

     

     

    (4)    As a pilot program, an applicant may apply for the addition of new beds if all of the following subsections are met. Further, an applicant proposing new beds at an existing licensed hospital site shall not be required to be in compliance with the needed hospital bed supply set forth in Appendix C if the application meets all other applicable certificate of need review standards and agrees and assures to comply with all applicable project delivery requirements.

    (a)    The beds are being added at the existing licensed hospital site.

    (b)       The hospital at the existing licensed hospital site has operated as follows for the previous, consecutive 12 months based on its existing licensed hospital bed capacity as documented on the most recent reports of the "Annual Hospital Statiscal Questionnaire" or more current verifiable data:

     

    Number of Licensed Hospital Beds

    Average Occupancy

    Fewer than 300

    80% and above

    300 or more

    85% and above

     

    (c)     The number of beds that may be approved pursuant to this subsection shall be the number of beds necessary to reduce the occupancy rate for the hospital to 80 percent for hospitals with licensed beds of 300 or more and to 75 percent for hospitals with licensed beds of fewer than 300. The number of beds shall be calculated as follows:

    (i)     Divide the actual number of patient days of care provided during the most recent, consecutive 12- month period for which verifiable data are available to the department by .80 for hospitals with licensed beds of 300 or more and by .75 for hospitals with licensed beds of fewer than 300 to determine licensed bed days at 80 percent occupancy or 75 percent occupancy as applicable;

    (ii)    Divide the result of step (i) by 365 (or 366 for leap years) and round the result up to the next whole number;

    (iii)     Subtract the number of licensed beds as documented on the "Department Inventory of Beds" from the result of step (ii) and round the result up to the next whole number to determine the maximum number of beds that may be approved pursuant to this subsection.

    (d)     The provisions of Section 6(4) are part of a pilot program approved by the Certificate Of Need Commission and shall expire and be of no further force and effect, and shall not be applicable to any application which has not been deemed complete in accordance with Rule 325.9201 prior to November 30, 2003. The Department shall report to the Certificate Of Need Commission within 180 days following the expiration of Section 6(4) on the number of applications received and approved, the total capital expenditures approved, and the projected cost savings to be realized, if any.

    (e)      Applicants proposing to add new hospital beds under this subsection shall not be subject to comparative review.

     

    Section 7. Requirements for approval -- replacement beds in a hospital in a replacement zone

     

    Sec. 7. (1) If the application involves the development of a new licensed site, an applicant proposing replacement beds in a hospital in the replacement zone shall demonstrate that the new beds in a hospital shall result in a hospital of at least 200 beds in a non-rural county or 50 beds in a rural county. This subsection may be waived by the Department if the Department determines, in its sole discretion, that a smaller hospital is necessary or appropriate to assure access to health-care services.

     

    (2)   In order to be approved, the applicant shall propose to (i) replace an equal or lesser number of beds currently licensed to the applicant at the licensed site at which the proposed replacement beds are located, and (ii) that the proposed new licensed site is in the replacement zone.

     

     

     

    (3)    An applicant proposing replacement beds in the replacement zone shall not be required to be in compliance with the needed hospital bed supply set forth in Appendix C if the application meets all other applicable certificate of need review standards and agrees and assures to comply with all applicable project delivery requirements.

     

    (4)   As a pilot program, in counties having a population of not less than 500,000 nor more than 750,000 persons, an applicant proposing to replace an existing licensed non-rural hospital beyond 2 miles but within:  (a) the applicable replacement zone, (b) ten miles from the existing licensed hospital site, and

    (c) the same hospital subarea, shall demonstrate satisfactorily to the Department the following:

    (a)     At least 45 percent of the land owned by the applicant on the perimeter of the existing licensed hospital site, or land adjacent to the existing licensed hospital site that may or may not be owned by the hospital, including land directly across a public street adjacent to the existing licensed hospital site if the perimeter of the hospital site is bound in part by the public street, cannot be used for general hospital purposes due to recorded restrictions on the hospital’s use of that land. Such recorded restrictions shall have been in effect prior to January 1, 2000.

    (b)     That it is unable to acquire land sufficient to replace the licensed hospital facility for any of the following reasons:

    (i)    There is insufficient land available to purchase, for a replacement hospital, within a 2-mile radius of the existing licensed hospital site,

    (ii)    Land within a 2-mile radius is inappropriate to build a licensed hospital upon, or

    (iii)     It is prohibitively expensive (i.e., priced above fair market value) to purchase land within a 2-mile radius.

    (c)     That access to health care for the indigent, lower income, and disadvantaged is assured through a combination of retained clinic services at or within two miles of the original site, with available public or facility provided transportation to the relocation site, or by other appropriate means.

    (d)     Formal support for the replacement of the hospital is demonstrated by a resolution or letter of support of the elected governing body of the minor civil division (i.e., city, township, or incorporated village) in which the major portion of the current licensed hospital site is located.

    (e)    A clear and convincing showing of the need for replacement of the hospital must be demonstrated by the applicant and approved by the Department. For example:

    (i)    significant improvements in the efficiency, safety, and/or quality of health care delivery;

    (ii)    hospital is obsolete;

    (iii)    building code violations cannot be remedied without new construction;

    (iv)    inability to accommodate new equipment;

    (v)    deficiencies cannot be remedied by repairs or replacement on the existing site.

    (f)    Quality of care will be maintained, if not enhanced, as a result of the relocation, through a resolution by the governing board of the applicant.

    (g)    Commitment to continuing compliance with applicable licensing and certification requirements.

    MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH OFFICE OF HEALTH AND MEDICAL AFFAIRS

     

    CERTIFICATE OF NEED REVIEW STANDARDS FOR HOSPITAL BEDS

    -- ADDENDUM FOR PROJECTS FOR HIV INFECTED INDIVIDUALS --

     

    (By authority conferred on the Certificate of Need Commission by sections 22215 and 22217 of Act No. 368 of the Public Acts of 1978, as amended, and sections 7 and 8 of Act No. 306 of the Public Acts of 1969, as amended, being sections 333.22215, 333.2217, 24.207, and 24.208 of the Michigan Compiled Laws.)

     

    Section 1. Applicability; definitions

     

    Sec. 1. (1) This addendum supplements the Certificate of Need Review Standards for Hospital Beds and may be used for determining the need for projects established to meet the needs of HIV infected individuals.

     

    (2)   Except as provided by sections 2 and 3 below, these standards supplement and do not supercede the requirements and terms of approval required by the Certificate of Need Review Standards for Hospital Beds.

     

    (3)   The definitions that apply to the Certificate of Need Review Standards for Hospital Beds apply to these standards.

     

    (4)   "HIV infected" means that term as defined in Section 5101 of the Code.

     

    (5)   Planning area for projects for HIV infected individuals means the State of Michigan.

     

    Section 2. Requirements for approval; change in bed capacity

     

    Sec. 2. (1) A project which, if approved, will increase the number of licensed hospital beds in an overbedded subarea or will result in the total number of existing hospital beds in a subarea exceeding the needed hospital bed supply as determined under the Certificate of Need Review Standards for Hospital Beds may, nevertheless, be approved pursuant to subsection (3) of this addendum.

     

    (2)   Hospital beds approved as a result of this addendum shall be included in the Department inventory of existing beds in the subarea in which the hospital beds will be located. Increases in hospital beds approved under this addendum shall cause subareas currently showing a current surplus of beds to have that surplus increased.

     

    (3)   In order to be approved under this addendum, an applicant shall demonstrate all of the following:

    (a)     The Director of the Department has determined that action is necessary and appropriate to meet the needs of HIV infected individuals for quality, accessible and efficient health care.

    (b)    The hospital will provide services only to HIV infected individuals.

    (c)     The applicant has obtained an obligation, enforceable by the Department, from existing licensed hospital(s) in any subarea of this state to voluntarily delicense a number of hospital beds equal to the

     

     

    number proposed in the application. The effective date of the delicensure action will be the date the beds approved pursuant to this addendum are licensed. The beds delicensed shall not be beds already subject to delicensure under a bed reduction plan.

    (d)    The application does not result in more than 20 beds approved under this addendum in the State.

     

    (4)   In making determinations under Section 22225(2)(a) of the Code, for projects under this addendum, the Department shall consider the total cost and quality outcomes for overall community health systems for services in a dedicated portion of an existing facility compared to a separate aids facility and has determined that there exists a special need, and the justification of any cost increases in terms of important quality/access improvements or the likelihood of future cost reductions, or both.

     

    Section 3. Project delivery requirements--additional terms of approval for projects involving HIV infected individuals approved under this addendum.

     

    Sec. 3. (1) An applicant shall agree that, if approved, the services provided by the beds for HIV infected individuals shall be delivered in compliance with the following terms of certificate of need approval:

    (a)     The license to operate the hospital will be limited to serving the needs of patients with the clinical spectrum of HIV infection and any other limitations established by the Department to meet the purposes of this addendum.

    (b)     The hospital shall be subject to the general license requirements of Part 215 of the Code except as waived by the Department of Consumer & Industry Services to meet the purposes of this addendum.

    (c)     The applicant agrees that the Department of Consumer & Industry Services shall revoke the license of the hospital if the hospital provides services to inpatients other than HIV infected individuals.

     

    Section 4. Comparative reviews

     

    Sec. 4. (1) Projects proposed under Section 3 shall be subject to comparative review.
