Regime jurídico de licenciamento, da declaração de conformidade, abertura, modificação e funcionamento dos Estabelecimentos Prestadores de Cuidados de Saúde
Complete official native HTML original: preamble, all 73 articles in ten chapters, approval, promulgation and signatures. All 518 source paragraphs were read, and 51,662 normalized alphanumeric characters match the separate 35-page Gazette PDF after excluding running headers, footer and introductory metadata; this is not a claim of full visual review of all PDF pages. Article 52 distinguishes essential facility changes requiring an application within thirty days from other changes communicated within thirty days of implementation; those are operator duties, not a universal medical-device product variation approval period. Facility or installed-equipment alterations may require inspection and adapted procedures. Separate simplified, ordinary, renewal and inspection decision periods retain their starting points, tacit approval and information-request pauses. Articles 4–5 and 68 distinguish electronic processing, demonstrable unavailability and transitional DUC arrangements; the operational state of individual SIRFAS procedures is not inferred. Published on 12 May 2026, article 73 states entry thirty days after publication; ERIS Circular CA-ERIS/03/2026, dated 11 June, expressly identifies 12 June as commencement. Article 72 repeals Decreto 8/92; articles 64 and 71(3) preserve old licences and Portaria 45/93 technical requirements subject to conditions. No numeric fees or current forms are supplied by this decree. Subsequent amendments, technical rules, fees, forms and current implementation remain under review; excluded from default current-law discovery.
