Per the Joint Sunset Committee 2012 Final Report the Delaware Health Resources Board (HRB) transitioned from the\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  Division of Public Health to the Department Health and Social Services, Office of the Secretary, the <a href=\"\/dhcc\/\">Delaware Health Care Commission<\/a> (HCC). The HCC provides the administration and staffing for\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  the board and the CPR program which is regulated through the Delaware Code <a href=\"http:\/\/delcode.delaware.gov\/title16\/c093\/index.shtml\">16 Del. Code 9301<\/a> . The primary goal for the CPR process is to control health\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  care cost through a formal review process used to ensure public scrutiny of certain health care developments in the state. These reviews\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  are focused on balancing concerns for access, cost and quality. A Letter of Intent begins the CPR process and interested applicants will\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  find the entire process, start to finish, on this website.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n      <h1 class=\"text-center\">Featured News<\/h1>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2026\/01\/memberrecruitment.pdf\">Health Resources Board is Seeking New Members<\/a><\/li>\r\n\r\n<li><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/hrmpfinal.pdf\">Health Resources Management Plan (HRMP) Final Draft<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nincorporating public comments, as approved by the Health Care Commission on July 6, 2017.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n     <ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n            <li><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/hrmpcomments.pdf\">Public comments<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nderived from the Registrar of Regulation process.<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<li>   Delaware Regulations: Monthly Register of Regulations:         <a href=\"http:\/\/regulations.delaware.gov\/register\/september2017\/final\/21%20DE%20Reg%20222%2009-01-17.htm\">Delaware Health Resources Management Plan<\/a>.<\/li> \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<table class=\"table table-condensed table-hover\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <tbody><tr class=\"info\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <td>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      Certificate of Public Review Application Information\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <\/td>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <\/tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <td>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      <ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/hrmpapproved.pdf\">Health Resources Management Plan<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"guidingprincip.html\">Guiding Principles<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"cprprocedure.html\">CPR Procedures<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"certificateofpublicreview.html\">Requirements for a CPR<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"medequipment.html\">Major Medical Equipment<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"cprcriteria.html\">CPR Criteria<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/letterofintent.pdf\">Letter of Intent Submission Form<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/cprappkit2020.pdf\">CPR Application Kit<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"applicatfees.html\">Application Fees<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"faqs.html\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"contactinfo.html\">Program Contact Information<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      <\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <\/td>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <\/tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<\/tbody><\/table><br>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<table class=\"table table-condensed table-hover\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <tbody><tr class=\"info\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <th scope=\"col\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      State Board Regulatory Information\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <\/th>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <th scope=\"col\">\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      Reports and Publications\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <\/th>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <\/tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n  <tr>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n    <td>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n      <ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"dhrbmembers.html\">Board Members<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"http:\/\/delcode.delaware.gov\/title16\/c093\/index.shtml\">Title 16 Statute<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n       \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/dhcc\/pdf\/bylaws101315.pdf\">Board Bylaws<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"dhrbschedule.html\">Board Meeting Schedule<\/a>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <\/li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n        <li>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n          <a href=\"meetingmin.html\">Board Minutes, Agendas &amp;
