The Office of Healthcare Financing in the Division of Certificate of Need and Licensing of the Health Systems Branch of the Department of Health (Department) proposes readoption with amendments at N.J.A.C. 8:31A, which establishes standards for the ambulatory care facility assessment.

The proposed amendments would include amending definitions, adding instructions for electronic payment submission, and updating contact information and website addresses, to name a few.
