Should the Department determine to deny issuance of a Medicaid Nursing Home Permit, or permit only a portion of the Medicaid patient days requested, it shall send to the applicant a notice setting forth the particular reasons for the determination. The decision shall become final thirty (30) days after the mailing of the notice, unless the applicant, within such thirty-day period, shall give notice of his desire for an administrative hearing. If the applicant shall give such notice, he shall be given a hearing before the Board of Health and Environmental Control or its designee pursuant to Regulations promulgated by the Department.
