Sec. 4008. Grounds for denial, suspension or revocation of certificate of authority under Administrative Review Law. (a) When the Director has cause to believe that grounds for the denial of an application for a certificate of authority exist or that grounds for the suspension or revocation of a certificate of authority exist, he shall issue an order to the organization or applicant stating the grounds upon which the suspension, revocation or denial is based. The order shall be sent to the organization or applicant by certified or registered mail. The organization or applicant may in writing request a hearing within 30 days from the date of mailing of the order. If no written request is made, the order shall be final upon the expiration of said 30 days.

(1) A specific time for the hearing, which may not be less than 20 nor more than 30 days after mailing of the notice of hearing.

(2) A specific place for the hearing, which may be either in the City of Springfield or in the county where the organization's or applicant's principal place of business is located.

(c) After such hearing, or upon the failure of the limited health service organization to appear at such hearing, the Director shall take action as is deemed advisable on written findings which shall be mailed to the organization or applicant. The action of the Director shall be subject to review under the Administrative Review Law, as now or hereafter amended.
