The department shall, not later than ten days before the date of the hearing, mail a notice of the date, time, and place of the hearing to the facility. The department may hear all requested appeals in one public hearing.
(C) On the basis of the evidence presented at the hearing or any other evidence submitted by the intermediate care facility for the mentally retarded, the department may adjust a fee. The department’s decision is final.
