Description
Senate File 18 eliminates the certificate of need (CON) process required prior to the offering or development of a new or changed institutional health service and makes conforming changes throughout the Iowa Code.
Background
Certificate of Need is a regulatory review process that requires application to the Department of Public Health (DPH) for, and receipt of, an approval prior to the offering or development of a new or changed institutional health service. Potential applicants include hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient surgery centers, or anyone purchasing medical equipment valued above $1.5 million. Projects proposed by providers are reviewed by DPH staff and the five-member State Health Facilities Council against the criteria specified in Iowa Code section 135.64. The fees required to be paid with an application are equivalent to 0.3% of the anticipated project cost, with a minimum of $600 and a maximum of $21,000 (641 IAC 202.4). These fees are deposited in the General Fund. An application for a new or changed institutional health service offered or developed by an intermediate care facility for persons with an intellectual disability or mental illness is exempt from the fee.
Assumptions
- For FY 2017 and FY 2018, fee revenue deposited in the General Fund averaged $123,000.
- The DPH staff, council expenditures, and program costs necessary to operate the process are funded through the Public Protection General Fund appropriation. The estimated FY 2019 budget is $132,000.
Fiscal Impact
Senate File 18 would decrease General Fund fee revenue by an estimated $123,000 in FY 2020 and each year thereafter.
Senate File 18 would decrease the DPH staff by 1.0 full-time equivalent (FTE) position and would decrease expenditures of the Public Protection General Fund appropriation by $132,000 beginning in FY 2020 and each year thereafter.
