Chapter 05 - Acute Care Facilities and Services Overview
Section 15-8-90-05-508 - Diagnostic Imaging Services

Current through September 24, 2024

Diagnostic imaging equipment and services, except for magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography, and invasive digital angiography, are reviewable under the state's Certificate of Need law only when the capital expenditure for the acquisition of the equipment and related costs exceeds $1.5 million. The provision of invasive diagnostic imaging services, i.e., invasive digital angiography, positron emission tomography, and the provision of magnetic resonance imaging services require a Certificate of Need if the proposed provider has not offered the services on a regular basis within 12 months prior to the time the services would be offered, regardless of the capital expenditure.

Equipment in this category includes, but is not limited to: ultrasound, diagnostic nuclear medicine, digital radiography, angiography equipment, computed tomographic scanning equipment, magnetic resonance imaging equipment, and positron emission tomography.
