Fees are required for processing applications, based on a $10,000 minimum plus .015 for each dollar of proposed capital expenditure, with the total fee not to exceed $50,000. Fees must be submitted with each application.

Most projects are reviewed on a competitive basis, and a letter of intent must be filed with the Certificate of Need Office at least 30 days before an application is filed. A letter of intent is not required for projects that will be given a non-competitive, expedited review.

The fee for projects identified for review under Section 408.036(3), Florida Statutes which pertains to exemptions, is $250.00.

Any questions regarding whether a project is subject to CON review may be sent to james.mclemore@ahca.myflorida.com or calls made to James McLemore at 850-412-4401.
