N.D. Cent. Code § 23-17.4-09
Any duly authorized officer or employee of the department may make necessary inspections and investigations to determine the state of compliance with the provisions of, and rules adopted pursuant to, this chapter. The department may inspect any program which the department has reason to believe is offering or advertising itself as a hospice program without a license, but no inspection of any hospice program may be made without the permission of the owner or person in charge unless a warrant is first obtained authorizing inspection. Any application for issuance or renewal of a hospice program license constitutes permission for any inspection of the hospice program for which the license is sought in order to facilitate verification of the information submitted on or in connection with the application.
