| (a) An application for a certificate of authority will
be processed in compliance with §1.809 of this title (relating
to HMO Certificate of Authority).
(b) After completion of the department's review of
documents, the department may perform quality of care and financial
examinations. If a hearing is held in compliance with §1.809

examination.
