a) A right of intervention shall exist for other interested parties, including representatives of health planning organizations and consumer groups who demonstrate a relevant interest.

b) A person desiring to intervene shall present a Petition for Intervention accompanied by any pleadings or motions he proposes to file before the hearing. The Petition to Intervene shall be submitted to the administrative law judge for a determination of whether the petition should be granted.

c) In determining whether to allow intervention, the administrative law judge may consider whether the intervention will unduly delay the hearing, prejudice the rights of the respondent, be unduly burdensome to any party, enlarge the scope of the proceedings, or insert new issues into the proceedings; whether there are other remedies available to the petitioners; and whether there are any other factors that may bear upon the rights of any party.

d) An intervener shall have all the rights of an original party to the administrative hearing unless the administrative law judge in allowing intervention restricts the petitioner's right to intervene to certain issues in the proceedings.

e) Petition for Intervention

1) The Petition for Intervention shall contain:

A) the name and address of the person making the petition to intervene;

B) if the petitioner is represented by an attorney, the name and address of the attorney; and

C) a plain and concise statement setting forth the grounds for intervention.

2) All petitions shall be filed with the administrative law judge and copies served on all parties to the proceeding.
