249K.4 PRELIMINARY EVALUATION.
1. A provider preparing cost or other feasibility projections for
a request for relief or an exception pursuant to section 249K.3 may
submit a request for preliminary evaluation.
2. The request shall contain all of the information required for
the type of assistance sought pursuant to section 249K.3.
3. The provider shall estimate the timing of the initiation and
completion of the project to allow the department to respond with
estimates of both instant relief and the nondirect care limit
exception.
4. The department shall respond to a request for preliminary
evaluation under this section within thirty days of receipt of the
request. A preliminary evaluation does not guarantee approval of
instant relief or the nondirect care limit exception upon submission
of a formal request. A preliminary evaluation provides only an
estimate of value of the instant relief or nondirect care limit
exception based only on the projections. Section History: Recent Form
