Notes: The provisions of the Provider Payment Act of 2010 exempt eligible hospitals from being required to pay shortfalls associated with CON indigent and charity care commitments while the Act is in force. Critical Access Hospitals, Psychiatric Hospitals, and State-owned hospitals are exempt from the PPA so must still pay shortfalls associated with CON commitments.

New Requirements for Verification of Lawful Presence within the United States
Effective January 1, 2012 agencies or political subdivisions of the State of Georgia providing or administering a public benefit are required to verify that applicants for a public benefit are in the United States in a lawful manner. See O.C.G.A. 50-36-1(e). Certificates of Need (CON) are considered a public benefit under the new provisions. Therefore, an applicant for a CON must be in compliance with the law for the CON to be awarded.
Effective January 1, 2012 all CON applications must include an original signed and notarized affidavit in accordance with O.C.G.A. 50-36-1(e)(2) as well as a copy of a secure and verifiable document in accordance with O.C.G.A. 50-36-2. A copy of the affidavit along with instructions for submitting the affidavit and secure and verifiable document can be located at the following link or by navigating to the CON Applications and Forms page from the CON Information link from www.dch.georgia.gov.
http://dch.georgia.gov/vgn/images/portal/cit_1210/23/25/180044217HB87_CON_Instructions_1-1-2012.pdf
CONs that are approved and issued after January 1, 2012 for applications that were submitted prior to January 1, 2012 are also subject to these provisions. DCH will contact applicants to provide instruction related to compliance prior to issuing such a CON.
Open Record Requests
Requests for documents or other information can be obtained using the Open Record Request form found at the following: http://dch.georgia.gov/health-planning-publications-and-data-resources The ORR Form found there can be emailed to HealthPlanningInfo@dch.ga.gov
34
Special Note Please do not submit Letters of Opposition or Letters of Support prior to the Department's receipt of an actual Certificate of Need application. The Letters of Intent section of the Tracking and Appeals Report provides the date on which the CON Application must be submitted for each potential project. If the CON application is not received on that date, the associated Letter of Intent is considered expired. New CON Thresholds become effective 7/1/2015. The new thresholds can be found on the CON Thresholds page. http://dch.georgia.gov/con-thresholds Web Links Please access copies of available Health Planning decisions and documents at the following web address: https://weblink.dch.georgia.gov/WebLink8/Browse.aspx?startid=63&dbid=1 Please also visit www.GaMap2Care.info for healthcare facility and reporting information.
