(a) If an adult day health care center or an applicant for a license has not been previously licensed, the department may only issue a provisional license to the center as provided in this section.
(b) A provisional license to operate an adult day health care center shall expire one year from the date of issuance, or at an earlier time as determined by the department at the time of issuance.
(c) Within 30 days prior to the expiration of a provisional license, the department shall give the adult day health care center a full and complete inspection, and, if the adult day health care center meets all applicable requirements for licensure, a regular license shall be issued. If the adult day health care center does not meet the requirements for licensure but has made substantial progress towards meeting the requirements, as determined by the department, the initial provisional license shall be renewed for six months.
(d) If the department determines that there has not been substantial progress towards meeting licensure requirements at the time of the first full inspection provided by this section, or, if the department determines upon its inspection made within 30 days prior to the termination of a renewed provisional license that there is lack of full compliance with the requirements, no further license shall be issued.
(e) If an applicant for a provisional license to operate an adult day health care center has been denied a license, the applicant may contest the denial by requesting an adjudicative hearing. The proceedings to review the denial shall be conducted pursuant to Section 100171.
(f) The department shall not apply less stringent criteria when issuing a provisional license pursuant to this section than it applies when issuing a regular license.
