1. Assisted living reporting and fees
This bill requires certain assisted living facilities, specifically adult day centers, community-based residential facilities, and residential care apartment complexes, to submit biennial reports to DHS through an online system prescribed by DHS. Under current law, some assisted living facilities have no statutory reporting requirements and others have annual rather than biennial requirements. Current law also requires written reports rather than online submissions.
