What is the result when a facility meets licensing standards and submits the required fee?

• A. Issuance of license
• B. Renewal of license
• C. Denial of license
• D. Suspension of license

Answer: (A)

When a facility meets licensing standards and pays the required fee, the licensing authority grants permission to operate by issuing a license. This is the official approval that allows the facility to legally operate under the licensing rules. If the facility already has a license and the renewal period arrives, the process would be to renew, which also requires meeting standards and paying the fee, but the immediate result described here is the issuance of a license. Denial would occur if standards aren’t met or the fee isn’t paid, and suspension would occur after a license has been issued if violations are found.
