This section adds a new section to an existing chapter 43.216. Here is the modified chapter for context.
At the request of a prospective licensee considering or in the process of becoming licensed as an agency under this chapter, the department shall:
Meet with the individual to explain the licensure requirements; and
Inspect the physical space that is contemplated for licensure and inform the prospective licensee of:
Any changes needed to the physical space that are required for licensure; and
Any other existing barriers to licensure.
