OAR 333-200-0285: Violations

(1) No person, emergency medical service, medical clinic, or hospital shall by any means advertise, assert, represent, offer, provide or imply that such person, service, clinic or hospital is a trauma system hospital or has the capabilities for providing treatment to trauma patients beyond the status for which the approval has been granted. (2) No trauma system hospital shall in any manner advertise or publicly assert that its trauma approval affects the hospital's care capabilities for non-trauma system patients, nor that the approval should influence the referral of non-trauma system patients. (3) Where a hospital is greater than three months in arrears in reporting required trauma patient data, calculated from the date of patient discharge, the Oregon Health Authority (Authority) may contract with an independent data collection and abstraction service to perform the data collection. The Authority shall assess the trauma system hospital for all costs associated with such collection of required data.
