(a) Change of ownership defined. A change of ownership
occurs when there is a change in the person legally responsible for
the operation of the facility, whether by lease or by ownership.
(1) If a corporate licensee amends its articles of
incorporation to revise its name and the tax identification number
does not change, this subsection does not apply, except that the corporation
must notify the department within 10 calendar days after the effective
date of the name change.
(2) The sale of stock of a corporate licensee does
not cause this subsection to apply.
(b) License application required. The new owner shall
submit an application for an initial license to the department prior
to the date of the change of ownership or not later than 10 calendar
days following the date of a change of ownership. The application
shall be in accordance with §134.22 of this title (relating to
the Application and Issuance of Initial License). In addition to the
documents required in §134.22 of this title, the applicant shall
include the effective date of the change of ownership.
(c) Surveys. The on-site construction and health surveys
required by §134.22 of this title may be waived by the department.
(d) Issuance of license. When the new owner has complied
with the provisions of §134.22 of this title, the department
shall issue a license which shall be effective the date of the change
of ownership.
(e) Expiration of license. The expiration date of the
license shall be in accordance with §134.22(d)(2) of this title.
(f) License void. The previous owner's license shall
be void on the effective date of the new owner's license.
