When the commissioner has reasonable cause to believe that grounds for the denial, suspension or revocation of a certificate exists or when the commissioner levies an administrative penalty, such commissioner shall notify the health maintenance organization or medicare provider organization in writing stating the grounds upon which the commissioner believes the certificate should be denied, suspended or revoked or the penalty levied. The applicant may, within 15 days from receipt of such notice, make written request to the commissioner for a hearing thereon. The commissioner shall hear such party or parties within 20 days after receipt of such request in accordance with the provisions of the Kansas administrative procedure act.

Upon the request of the commissioner, a representative of the secretary of health and environment who is licensed to practice medicine and surgery shall be in attendance at the hearing and shall participate in the proceedings. Recommendations received pursuant to this subsection may be rejected or accepted in full or in part by the commissioner. Nothing in this subsection shall be construed to limit or modify in any way the authority given by the provisions of this act to the commissioner to deny, suspend or revoke a certificate or to levy an administrative penalty in lieu of suspension or revocation.
