The 2016 State Medical Facilities Plan (SMFP) was approved by
Governor McCrory on December 15, 2015, and has been issued
effective January 1, 2016. It includes several need determinations
of interest to hospitals. These include need determinations
different from the proposed SMFP issued last summer, but were
included in or deleted from the final SMFP based on petitions filed
with the State Health Coordinating Council, or because of updated
data that justified their addition or removal.
All of the SMFP need determinations are listed below. Application
due dates are absolute deadlines. Applications must be filed with
the Healthcare Planning and Certificate of Need Section, which is
at 809 Ruggles Drive, Raleigh, NC 27603. The filing deadline is
5:30 p.m. on the application due date.
