AI Summary
This bill amends the State Certification of Need and Health Facility Licensure Act to eliminate references to the Certificate of Need (CON) program, thereby removing the requirement for obtaining a CON before undertaking certain health care facility projects or operations in the state. The bill renames the act the "State Health Facility Licensure Act" and focuses solely on the licensure of health care facilities, without the CON component. The bill also repeals the sections of the code related to the CON program and provides guidance to the Department of Health and Environmental Control on implementing the changes.
