Starting or operating a care organization in Michigan need not feel like reading legalese. Whether you’re opening an adult foster care home, a hospice residence, expanding behavioral health, or seeking Medicare certification, we provide implemented templates that are compliant—plus step-by-step guidance. Our state-ready policy kits and one-to-one licensing consults help you move faster with less risk. You’ll get the precise language surveyors expect, intake forms, training trackers, and mock-survey tools. If you’re looking for Michigan provider policies, procedures, and support that actually shrink timelines, you’re in the right place. With Michigan’s tight care workforce, clean approvals and efficient onboarding are more important than ever. Recently, hospitals reported about 23,000 job openings, and home care jobs continue to expand nationwide.

Michigan Licensing Overview

Most facility licensing in Michigan is through LARA’s Bureau of Community and Health Systems (BCHS), while construction/plan review and life-safety are coordinated with the Health Facilities Engineering Section (HFES) and, as applicable, the Bureau of Fire Services (BFS). Common tasks include submitting the application, paying fees, completing background checks, passing life-safety and plan review if required, and a pre-approval survey. Medicaid billing requires screening and participation in MDHHS’s CHAMPS system. For hands-on assistance, our Michigan care provider licensing consultations map every step to your facility type and develop a personalized action plan.

Michigan State Specific FAQs

Q1) What is the average duration of workforce background checks?
 LARA’s Workforce Background Check program completes over 80% of fingerprint checks within 48 hours; the Michigan State Police may take up to 30 days, and FBI resubmissions can take up to six weeks. Plan staffing accordingly.

Q2) Do assisted living communities in Michigan have licenses?
 Michigan does not license “assisted living” as a separate category. Depending on services, a setting may need to be licensed as a Home for the Aged (HFA) or an Adult Foster Care (AFC) home.

Q3) Are there Michigan state licensing regulations for a home health agency?
 No. Michigan does not require state licensure for home health agencies. Many organizations pursue Medicare certification, and clinicians maintain individual professional licenses.

Q4) Who licenses hospice, and what makes hospice residences unique?
 Hospice agencies and hospice residences must be licensed by LARA before Medicare certification. A Certificate of Need (CON) is only implicated if a hospice residence project also proposes to license long-term care (nursing) beds.

Q5) How do I become a Michigan Medicaid billing provider?
 All providers serving Medicaid beneficiaries must screen and enroll in CHAMPS (online application with NPI and ongoing updates for compliance).

Patiently Helpful

I am working with a team therefore it took a little time to get the documents together. Also, my laptop went down on me so I was not uploading to the Google document drive correctly. Anton, who has been helping me has been great with making it work even though I was not equipped to put everything in place like I should’ve been, and I am greatly appreciative of that

Client Handbook

"Though I initially felt some hesitation about the product after reading the online table of contents, my concerns were completely addressed after a call with Anton at the home office. He provided excellent reassurance that the final product would be exactly as stated and that I would be able to customize it with my business's information. Anton also assured me that ongoing support would be available to answer any questions and guide me through the process. Upon receiving and reviewing the handbook, it perfectly matched the description. I would not only purchase from this company again but also highly recommend them."
