The existing Long-Term Care, Health, Safety, and Security Act of 1973 establishes an inspection and reporting system and a provisional licensing mechanism, administered by the State Department of Public Health, to ensure that long-term health care facilities, as defined, are in compliance with state statutes, regulations, and federal standards pertaining to patient care. The act requires the department, if it determines that a violation of any state or federal law or regulation relating to the operation or maintenance of the facility warrants the issuance of a citation, to take specified actions regarding federal enforcement remedies and citations. The act prohibits the issuance of both a citation pursuant to state laws and the recommendation that a federal civil monetary penalty be imposed. This bill would delete this prohibition. The act establishes a citation and appeals process, that includes a citation review conference. This bill would repeal the citation review conference process and make conforming changes. Existing law provides for the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services, under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care services. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by federal Medicaid Program provisions. Existing law requires the State Department of Health Care Services to consider whether an undue hardship, as described, exists prior to finding that an applicant or recipient is subject to a period of ineligibility for medical assistance for home and facility care. This bill would require the State Department of Health Care Services to also consider whether an undue hardship exists for an applicant for, or recipient of, home and facility care under additional circumstances relating to the transfer of assets.
