§ 9956. Appeal from a final decision of the Board.

(a) A hospital affected by any final decision of the Board may appeal from such order to the Superior Court within 30 days from the date upon which such decision is served. The appeal shall be filed with the prothonotary of the Superior Court and the summons in the appeal shall be served upon the Chair of the Board and the Secretary of the Department of Health and Social Services, either personally or by certified mail.

(b) The appeal shall be based upon the record created before the Board.

(c) The scope of review before the Court shall be that the Board's findings shall be upheld if they are supported by sufficient evidence, free of error of law, and not arbitrary or capricious. When factual issues are reviewed the Court shall take due account of the presumption of official regularity and the specialized competence of the Board.
