LAC 28:IX.105. License Fees

A. All license applications must be accompanied by a non-refundable fee of $1,500.00 (approved by Louisiana Legislature Act 278 of the 2012 Regular Legislative Session). The license application fee must be paid by company or institutional check or by money order, and should be made payable to the Louisiana Board of Regents. Any institution granted a license to operate will be required to pay an additional $1,500.00 at the start of the second year of the two-year licensing period. License renewal fees are required during each subsequent two-year licensing period and are non-refundable. However, the initial license application fee may be reduced to $200 for those institutions seeking initial licensure in order to allow clinical practicum experiences for fewer than five Louisiana residents enrolled in nursing and other health-related programs only. In order to continue and renew their licenses, those institutions will be required to pay all subsequent fees, including renewal fees. License renewal fees are required during each subsequent two-year licensing period and are nonrefundable. B. If a request for license renewal is not received at the Board of Regents' offices at least 30 days prior to its expiration date, the institution can be subject to a delinquent fee of $500 in addition to the renewal fee. C. The Board of Regents may authorize assessment of special or supplemental fees to be paid by institutions seeking licensure pursuant to special actions or requests. D. Institutions seeking licensure shall submit all required materials and the nonrefundable license fee to the Board of Regents. If a final determination concerning the institution's qualifications for licensure is not reached within 180 days of receipt of the license application and all supporting materials, a provisional license will be issued to the institution. The provisional license will remain in effect pending a final licensing decision by the board.
