400.484  Right of inspection.--Any duly authorized officer or employee of the Agency for Health Care Administration may make such inspections and investigations as are necessary in order to determine the state of compliance with this part and with applicable rules. The right of inspection extends to any business that the Agency for Health Care Administration has reason to believe is being operated as a home health agency without a license, but such inspection of any such business may not be made without the permission of the owner or person in charge unless a warrant is first obtained from a circuit court. Any application for a license issued under this part or for license renewal constitutes permission for an appropriate inspection to verify the information submitted on or in connection with the application.
