(A)
Purpose. For the
purpose of obtaining factual information, the board may appoint a site
visitation team to make an on-site visit to a doctor of chiropractic degree
program and to provide the board with a written report of its findings. The
site visit may occur when a program applies for board approval or at any time
the board believes it is in the best interests of Ohioans to determine facts
concerning the operation of a board approved institution or
program.
(B)
Composition. The site visitation team shall be
appointed by the board and may consist of not more than seven members,
including a chairperson appointed by the board. The team shall conduct an
on-site visit of the program for the purpose of evaluation. The team shall
consist of members with particular backgrounds and expertise to provide a
comprehensive assessment of the program.
(C)
Logistics. The
entire projected cost of the team visit shall be paid by the program directly
to the team members. Such expenses shall include, but not be limited to, meals,
lodging, travel and per diem expenses of eight hours per day in addition to
time for travel. Expenses shall also include the time required for preparing
the report and presenting the report to the board. The program shall be
notified at least forty-five days in advance of the visit. Receipts of expenses
incurred by the site visitation team shall be submitted to the board for
documentation and approval prior to submission to the program for
reimbursement. Failure to pay monies due is grounds for denying or removing
board approval.
(D)
Report. At the completion of the on-site visit the
team shall prepare a report and present it to the board. The site visitation
team chairperson shall be responsible for preparing the report of findings of
the team. The team report shall include, but not be limited to, a detailed
analysis of the program's eligibility factors contained in its application for
approval and self-study documentation as well as other relevant
information.
Copies of the report shall be filed
with the board and the chief administrative officer of the program. All
clerical, administrative, printing and related expenses of the team shall be
paid by the program. The board shall review the report and shall notify the
program of its decision within one hundred twenty days of the filing of the
report. This time period may be extended for good cause at the board's
discretion.
