To the Honorable, the Assembly:
Pursuant to Section
50.04(5)(fr), Wis. Stats., effective June 17, 1998, the Department is required to submit an annual report to the Legislature related to Class A violations committed by nursing homes and forfeitures assessed on nursing homes for those violations.
1997 Act 237 made a number of revisions to statutes governing the operations of nursing homes, including the maximum forfeiture amounts that the Department may assess against homes for violations. The Department has issued 9 Class A violations to nursing homes (including facilities for the developmentally disabled) in the time period June 17, 1998 through May 31, 1999.
The attached chart details the Class A violations issued in this reporting period, the amount of forfeiture assessed for each violation, and if known, the amount of the forfeiture paid and collected. There were no assessments for Class A violations that were less than $2,500.
Sincerely,
Joe Leean
Secretary
Referred to committee on Health.
