798 LAWS OF MARYLAND Ch. 21
(II) THE CLASSES OF SERVICES THAT THE
MEDICAL LABORATORY WOULD PROVIDE; AND
(III) ANY OTHER INFORMATION THAT THE
SECRETARY REQUIRES.
(2) AN APPLICATION FOR A PERMIT TO REPRESENT OR
SERVICE A MEDICAL LABORATORY SHALL INCLUDE SATISFACTORY
EVIDENCE THAT THE MEDICAL LABORATORY TO BE REPRESENTED OR
SERVICED AND ITS DIRECTOR MEET THE REQUIREMENTS THAT THE
SECRETARY ADOPTS UNDER THIS SUBTITLE.
(C) FEES.
THE APPLICANT SHALL PAY TO THE DEPARTMENT THE
APPLICATION FEE SET BY THE SECRETARY.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This section is new language derived
without substantive change from the second,
third, and eighth sentences of former Article 43,
§ 34(a), as those sentences related to
applications and application fees for permits,
and from the first clause of the second sentence
of (d).
In subsection (a) of this section, the phrase "on
the form that the Secretary requires" is standard
language added to state expressly a provision
that only was implied in the former law: i.e.,
that applications may be made only on the form
required by the Secretary.
As to subsection (b)(2) of this section and the
phrase "requirements that the- Secretary adopts
under this subtitle", see revisor's note to §
17-206 of this subtitle. In light of this
revision, the former reference to application for
a permit to represent or service a medical
laboratory "on such terms and conditions as are
adopted by the Secretary" is deleted as
unnecessary.
One of those terms and conditions is the payment
of an application fee, which, in the former law,
was stated expressly only as to a permit for
operating a medical laboratory. Subsection (c)
of this section, as revised, reflects actual
practice that each applicant pays this fee. As
to the authority of the Secretary to set fees,
see § 17-204 of this subtitle.
In subsection (c) of this section, the former
reference to the "laboratories administration" is
deleted to avoid reference to a nonstatutory unit
of the Department.
