Description
Appellant seeks review of a final order dismissing for lack of standing Appellant's petition challenging Appellee Agency for Health Care Administration AHCA's approval of a certificate of need (CON) application filed by Appellee St. Vincent's. We reverse. A brief synopsis of the facts is as follows. St. Luke's filed CON 9483 seeking to relocate 214 of its acute-care beds to a replacement hospital on the campus of the Mayo Clinic Jacksonville, and to delicense 75 beds, including 10 Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) beds. This CON was conditioned on the approval of two CONs filed by St. Vincent's. St. Vincent's filed CON 9484 seeking to establish a new 170-bed acute-care hospital at the existing site of St. Luke's (the Belfort Road location), and including CON 9484P for a partial application of 135 acute-care beds. St. Vincent's also filed CON 9481 seeking to establish Level II NICU services of up to 10 beds at the proposed new site, noting that its licensure was dependent on the delicensure of St. Luke's NICU beds. This exchange would permit St. Luke's to relocate all its services except for the NICU unit, which would stay on Belfort Road and be operated by St. Vincent's. AHCA issued a notice indicating that it intended to approve CONs 9481, 9483, and 9484P, and deny 9484. 27 Fla. Admin. Weekly 52 6192 (Dec. 28, 2001).
