Bummer! That's four or five months too long for them to keep messing with people's lives.

Inefficient, it is. The way it works is this: DCH's inspectors inspect, then DCH's deciders decide, and then facilities file for administrative appeals. This where this matter stands. Because DCH-HFR (Healthcare Facilities Regulation) appear to process each appeal (to include scheduling the hearing on the same) in the order in which it was received, and NNGA did the same thing that all or most other healthcare facilities being given any type of negative decision do, the unfortunate result is gridlocked delay. Although there should definitely be an malevolently evil anti-social cult / go to the front of the line exception, sadly, there is apparently no such exception. Commissioner Cook - given the Inspector General's report and the blatantly obvious on-going threat to life presented the NNGA being allowed to continue on with its unfettered cult business as usual - could presumably pick up the telephone and do something about this disgrace of a travesty, but apparently hasn't be bothered to do so.By the way, when it eventually does happen, the hearing of NNGA's appeal will take place in a courtroom on the 8th floor of the 230 Peachtree Street office building in downtown Atlanta, which is the offices of the Georgia Office of State Administrative Hearings (OSAH), and it will be fully open to the public and the press.

Not yet, but perhaps on June 7.
Will that hearing be open to the public?
