Sec. 21563.
(1) The department, in consultation with the ad hoc advisory committee appointed under section 21562, shall promulgate rules for designation of a rural community hospital, maximum number of beds, and the services provided by a rural community hospital. The director shall submit proposed rules, based on the recommendations of the committee, for public hearing not later than 6 months after receiving the report under section 21562(5).
(2) The designation as a rural community hospital shall be shown on a hospital's license and shall be for the same term as the hospital license. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this part or in rules promulgated under this section, a rural community hospital shall be licensed and regulated in the same manner as a hospital otherwise licensed under this article. The provisions of part 222 applicable to hospitals also apply to a rural community hospital and to a hospital designated by the department under federal law as an essential access community hospital or a rural primary care hospital. This part and the rules promulgated under this part do not preclude the establishment of differential reimbursement for rural community hospitals, essential access community hospitals, and rural primary care hospitals.
