	(a)  Notwithstanding the procedures set out in 22 AAC 30.110, the department will summarily suspend or revoke a provider's approval as provided in this section.  
	(b)  The department will summarily suspend a provider's approval under this chapter if the department determines that the provider's professional license issued in this or another jurisdiction has been suspended or determines that the provider has violated a condition placed on the approval under 22 AAC 30.110(g). The department will notify the provider of the suspension of provider approval under this section. Suspension of provider approval under this subsection takes effect on the date the provider is notified of the suspension. The provider may not apply for renewal of the approval, or apply for a new initial approval, under this chapter while the provider's approval is suspended under this section. If, before the lapse date of the provider's approval, the provider  
		(1) submits verification to the department that the provider's suspended professional license has been restored to good standing, or that the provider is in compliance with the relevant condition, as applicable, the department will lift the suspension of the provider's approval under this chapter;  
		(2) has not submitted verification to the department that the provider's suspended professional license has been restored to good standing or that the provider is in compliance with the relevant condition, as applicable, the provider's approval under this chapter lapses.  
	(c)  A provider whose professional license was suspended and whose approval under this chapter lapsed under (b)(2) of this section because that professional license had not been restored to good standing must comply with the procedures and requirements of 22 AAC 30.100 to obtain a subsequent approval under this chapter and must submit verification acceptable to the department that the provider's suspended professional license has been restored to good standing.  
	(d)  The department will summarily revoke a provider's approval under this chapter if the department determines that the provider's professional license issued in this or another jurisdiction has been revoked. The department will notify the provider of the revocation. Revocation under this subsection takes effect on the date the provider is notified of the revocation.  
	(e)  In this section, "professional license" means a license described in 22 AAC 30.030(b)(1) or a license to practice in one of the fields listed in 22 AAC 30.030(b)(1) issued by another licensing jurisdiction.
