Sec. 616.
(1) If a document required or permitted to be filed with the commissioner under this act substantially conforms to the requirements of this act, the commissioner shall endorse upon it the word "filed" with the commissioner's official title and the dates of receipt and of filing, and shall file and index the document or a reproduction of the document pursuant to the records media act in his or her office. If so requested at the time of delivery of the document to his or her office, the commissioner shall include the hour of filing in his or her endorsement on the document.
(2) If the commissioner fails promptly to file a document, other than an annual report or a supplemental statement, submitted for filing under this act, the commissioner, within 10 days after receipt from the person submitting the document for filing of a written request for the filing of the document, shall give written notice of the refusal to file to that person, specifying the reasons for the failure to file the document. From the disapproval, the person may seek judicial review pursuant to sections 103, 104, and 106 of the administrative procedures act of 1969, Act No. 306 of the Public Acts of 1969, being sections 24.303, 24.304, and 24.306 of the Michigan Compiled Laws.
(3) If a document relating to a health care corporation filed with the commissioner under this act is an inaccurate record of the corporation action referred to in the document or was defectively or erroneously executed, the document may be corrected by filing with the commissioner a certificate of correction on behalf of the corporation. A certificate, entitled "certificate of correction of . . . (correct title of document and name of corporation)" shall be signed as provided in this act with respect to the document being corrected and shall be filed with the commissioner. The certificate shall set forth the name of the corporation, the date the document to be corrected was filed by the commissioner, the provision in the document as corrected or eliminated, and, if the execution was defective, the proper execution. The corrected document is effective in its corrected form as of its original filing date except as to a person who relied upon the inaccurate portion of the document and was, as a result of the inaccurate portion of the document, adversely affected by the correction.
(4) This section does not apply with respect to documents filed pursuant to part 5 or this part.
