ON REMAND
PER CURIAM.
On February 21, 1990, a panel of this Court issued a published opinion per curiam in these cases affirming the trial court's grants of summary disposition in favor of the Michigan Department of Public Health. Gentry v Dep't of Public Health, 182 Mich App 400; 451 NW2d 878 (1990). After petitioners filed a delayed application for leave to appeal to our Supreme Court, the Court, in lieu of granting leave to appeal, remanded the matter to this Court for supplemental consideration. 437 Mich 921 (1991). The Supreme *104 Court retained jurisdiction and directed us to file our supplemental opinion on remand on or before July 1, 1991. We again affirm.
The Supreme Court order directs:
On remand the Court of Appeals should address the plaintiffs' contentions as they relate to the so-called "patients' bill of rights" provisions of article 17, part 202 of the Public Health Code, MCL 333.20201 et seq.; MSA 14.15(20201) et seq., and the provision of the Code that provides "[w]hen the department finds a violation of section 20201 as to a particular nursing home patient, the department shall issue an order requiring the nursing home to pay to the patient $100.00, or to reimburse the patient for costs incurred or injuries sustained, whichever is greater, and the nursing home shall be assessed a civil penalty, not to exceed $1,500.00, or $15.00 per patient bed, whichever is lesser." MCL 333.21799c(3); MSA 14.15(21799c)(3). The Court of Appeals shall consider whether the Legislature, by providing in § 21799c(3) that the Department of Public Health shall issue an order requiring the nursing home to pay or reimburse monies to an aggrieved patient, intended to create a remedy available to individual nursing home patients for violations of § 20201 that is subject to a full review process, including judicial review . .. .
Section 21799c(3), MCL 333.21799c(3); MSA 14.15(21799c)(3), provides:
When the department finds a violation of section 20201 as to a particular nursing home patient, the department shall issue an order requiring the nursing home to pay to the patient $100.00, or to reimburse the patient for costs incurred or injuries sustained, whichever is greater, and the nursing home shall be assessed a civil penalty, not to exceed $1,500.00, or $15.00 per patient bed whichever is lesser.
*105 In our original opinion, we stated:
Our review of §§ 21799a through 21799e convinces us that these sections of the code pertain to licensing concerns and were intended to ensure the delivery of an acceptable level of health care and services in nursing homes rather than the litigation of claims of patients against nursing home licensees. [Gentry, supra, p 408.]
We continue to adhere to the view expressed in our earlier opinion that, in providing the penalties enunciated in § 21799c(3), the Legislature was addressing licensing concerns of nursing homes and did not intend to create a remedy available to individual nursing home patients for violations of § 20201 which would be subject to a full review process, including judicial review. The clear language of the statute does not create a remedy for nursing home patients where, as here, the Department of Public Health finds no violation of § 20201. Patients who believe they are aggrieved may independently pursue civil actions against a nursing home regardless of any action or inaction of the department pursuant to the statute. Gentry, supra.
Affirmed.
