A New York State Certificate of Need (CON) is a regulatory process that requires healthcare providers to obtain state approval before establishing or expanding certain healthcare facilities and services. Its purpose is to ensure that new healthcare services are necessary and to prevent the duplication of services. A Health Equity Impact Assessment (HEIA) is a requirement for certain projects that also require a CON.
