(a) To operate a home health agency, a person
must first obtain a license from the state health commissioner, unless
the person is exempted by a rule adopted by the state department.
(b) The state health commissioner may also permit persons who are
not required to be licensed under this chapter to be voluntarily licensed
if:

to those provided by licensed home health agencies under this
chapter; and
(2) licensure will assist the person in obtaining:
(A) payment for services; or
(B) certification.
(c) If the department of state revenue notifies the department that a
person is on the most recent tax warrant list, the department shall not
issue or renew the person's license until:

department of state revenue indicating that the person's tax
warrant has been satisfied; or
(2) the department receives a notice from the commissioner of the
department of state revenue under IC 6-8.1-8-2(k).
