What is a person guilty of if they are operating a health care facility without a provisional, conditional, or regular license from the Department?

  1. Felony and upon conviction shall be punished by community service

  2. Misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than 50 days

  3. Misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $50 and not more than $500. Each day of operation shall be considered a separate offense

  4. Felony and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $50 and not more than $500

The correct answer is: Felony and upon conviction shall be punished by community service

Operating a health care facility without the required license is considered a serious offense in Colorado law. Individuals found guilty of this act are guilty of a felony and upon conviction shall be punished accordingly. The penalty includes sanctions such as community service. This demonstrates the severity of the consequences for operating a health care facility without the appropriate license. Option B is incorrect because operating a health care facility without a license is considered a felony, not a misdemeanor. Option C is incorrect because the punishment for operating without a license is more severe than just a fine ranging from $50 to $500 per day. Option D is incorrect because the penalty for operating without a license is a felony offense, not just a fine.
