    SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
    The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
    The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: Hospitals designated as a verified trauma centers are not considered small businesses as they employ more than 200 permanent full-time employees and have a net worth of more than $5 million. Based on the SERC Checklist completed by the Trauma Program, the regulatory costs for the implementation of the new data collection and submission requirements included in the proposed manual does not exceed the $200,000 threshold in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule.
    Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
