## Hospital Compliance — the Legal Map

The lawful operation of a hospital, clinic or other medical facility in Georgia is built on several layers of the Law on Health Care: legal status and functions, the licensing and permit regime, employment of personnel, the body protecting patients' rights, and the technical regulation of high-risk activity. This page describes these layers on the basis of the law's exact norms — what the facility's income structure must look like, which activity requires which document, and what follows from a breach of the regulation.

From a compliance perspective, documentary precision is valued most: the licence or permit, the list of employable personnel, the ethics commission and the notification form are each a separate compliance object, and neglecting them can go as far as suspension of the activity.

### What share of income must be medical?

At least 75% in financial resources and fixed assets; the remuneration fund at least 30% of income.

### Who issues the licence?

The ministry issues the licence and/or permit; regulated activity without them is prohibited.

### How often is high-risk activity checked?

By selective control three times a year under the technical regulation.

### What happens on violation of the regulation?

The activity may be fully or partially suspended; the suspension holds if the body applies to the court within 24 hours.
