Facilities Licensed by the Nevada Health Division

Not all medical offices are licensed by Nevada's Department of Health and Human Services (NV HHS).  This means that Nevada's Bureau of Health Care Quality and Compliance (HCQC) does not have the same jurisdiction to investigate your practice as it does in relation to facilities subject to NV HHS's licensing requirements. Although you probably know who you are (if not please find help), a list of the types of health care facilities licensed by the NV HHS can be found here: http://health.nv.gov/HCQC_HealthFacilities_WhoWeLicense.htm.

If your type of practice or facility is not on this list, make sure to take a careful look at NV HHS's or HCQC's jurisdictional powers if they request to inspect or investigate your facilities.
