(A) A hospice may not establish, operate, or maintain a multiple location or represent itself as such without first registering the multiple location with the department and receiving approval of the registration from the department confirming that, pursuant to Section 44-71-40(B), the hospice has properly filed the application to amend its license to include the multiple location. Upon approval by the department, a multiple location must be listed on the license of the parent hospice.
(B) A registration may be filed at any time and is effective until the expiration of the license of the parent hospice that is in effect at the time of the initial approval of the multiple location. The registration and approval of a multiple location is effective for a period running coterminous with the parent hospice's license, and the registration and approval of a multiple location must be reviewed by the department annually at the time of the parent hospice's license renewal and as a part of that process as prescribed by the department in regulation.
(C) The application for registration of a multiple location must prescribe by county the geographic area authorized to be served. Upon approval of the registration by the department, the license of the parent hospice must be amended to include the multiple location as required in subsection (A) as well as any additional counties within the prescribed geographic area authorized to be served.
(D) A multiple location approval granted pursuant to this chapter is not assignable or transferable and is subject to suspension or revocation at any time for failure to comply with this chapter.
