This amendment modifies the extension allowed on conditional licenses for providers licensed by the Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services. A conditional license is granted to a provider who has successfully completed the application process but has not yet admitted individuals for service. It is time limited and can only be renewed one time for a total of twelve months. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic conditional licenses could be extended beyond 12 months, until December 31, 2020. This amendment allows an extension for up to six months past the duration of the Governor's emergency declaration.
