(b) The Attorney General may suspend, revoke, or deny renewal of a provider's license if: (1) A fact or condition exists that, if it had existed when the licensed provider applied for its provider license, would have been a reason for denying the license; (2) The provider has committed a material violation of this chapter or a rule or order of the Attorney General under this chapter; (3) The provider is insolvent; (4) The provider or an employee or affiliate of the provider has refused to permit the Attorney General to make an examination authorized by this chapter; or (5) The provider has not responded within a reasonable time and in an appropriate manner to communications from the Attorney General. (c) If a provider does not comply with § 2422A(f) of this title or if the Attorney General otherwise finds that the public health or safety or general welfare requires emergency action, the Attorney General may order a summary suspension of the provider's license, effective on the date specified in the order. (d) If the Attorney General suspends, revokes, or denies the renewal of a provider license, the Attorney General may seek a court order authorizing seizure of any or all of the money in a trust account required by § 2422A of this title, as well as all books, records, accounts, and other property of the provider which are located in this State. (e) If the Attorney General makes a preliminary determination to suspend or revoke a provider's license, the provider may file a request for a hearing with the Attorney General pursuant to subchapter IV of the Delaware Administrative Procedures Act, Chapter 101 of Title 29. The Attorney General's preliminary determination may become a final decision if such a request is not timely filed. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Code, any final order under this section will be a public record.
