Sec. 20166.
(1) Notice of intent to deny, limit, suspend, or revoke a license or certification shall be given by certified mail or personal service, shall set forth the particular reasons for the proposed action, and shall fix a date, not less that 30 days after the date of service, on which the applicant or licensee shall be given the opportunity for a hearing before the director or the director's authorized representative. The hearing shall be conducted in accordance with the administrative procedures act of 1969 and rules promulgated by the department. A full and complete record shall be kept of the proceeding and shall be transcribed when requested by an interested party, who shall pay the cost of preparing the transcript.
(2) On the basis of a hearing or on the default of the applicant or licensee, the department may issue, deny, limit, suspend, or revoke a license or certification. A copy of the determination shall be sent by certified mail or served personally upon the applicant or licensee. The determination becomes final 30 days after it is mailed or served, unless the applicant or licensee within the 30 days appeals the decision to the circuit court in the county of jurisdiction or to the Ingham county circuit court.
(3) The department may establish procedures, hold hearings, administer oaths, issue subpoenas, or order testimony to be taken at a hearing or by deposition in a proceeding pending at any stage of the proceeding. A person may be compelled to appear and testify and to produce books, papers, or documents in a proceeding.
(4) In case of disobedience of a subpoena, a party to a hearing may invoke the aid of the circuit court of the jurisdiction in which the hearing is held to require the attendance and testimony of witnesses. The circuit court may issue an order requiring an individual to appear and give testimony. Failure to obey the order of the circuit court may be punished by the court as a contempt.
(5) The department shall not deny, limit, suspend, or revoke a license on the basis of an applicant's or licensee's failure to show a need for a health facility or agency unless the health facility or agency has not obtained a certificate of need required by part 222.
