NFPA 99 (Health Care Facilities)Chapter 12 (Hospital Requirements) section 12-3 may give some insight. I do not know of a "documented" time interval for such tests. I do know that some of the larger institutions specify 1 year (their policy)to perform a hy-pot, chassis leakage and ground ohms tests. Hope this helps!
