Section 400.717 - Provisional license(1) A provisional license may be issued to an adult foster care facility that has previously held a temporary or regular license under this act or an act repealed by this act. A provisional license may be issued for 6 months if an adult foster care facility is temporarily unable to conform to the requirements of this act for a regular license and may be renewed not more than 2 consecutive times as provided in subsections (2) and (4). The issuance of a provisional license shall be contingent upon the submission to the department of an acceptable plan of correction for the adult foster care facility within the time limitations of the provisional period.(2) If the provisional license is issued for deficiencies in the physical plant of the adult foster care facility, the provisional license may be renewed for not more than 2 consecutive 6-month terms for the same physical plant deficiencies.(3) If the provisional license is issued for deficiencies in the quality of care provided in the adult foster care facility, the provisional license is not renewable. If the quality of care deficiencies are corrected and intervening deficiencies of any kind are not incurred, a regular license shall be issued.(4) If a provisional license has been issued because of deficiencies in both the quality of care and the physical plant of the adult foster care facility, the provisional license may be renewed under subsection (2) if the quality of care deficiencies have been corrected.(5) The department shall notify the applicant of the reasons for issuing a provisional license and shall designate whether the deficiencies are physical plant deficiencies or quality of care deficiencies.1979, Act 218, Eff. 3/27/1980 ;--Am. 1992, Act 176, Imd.
