Once a proposed HMO has filed an application for a certificate of authority, the name application no longer must be extended. If the commissioner denies a certificate of authority, then the name application is canceled on the date the denial order becomes final. If a certificate of authority is granted, then the name is reserved for use by the HMO as long as the certificate of authority is in effect.
