Existing law establishes the State Department of Public Health and sets forth its powers and duties, including, but not limited to, the licensure and regulation of primary care clinics and specialty clinics. Violation of these provisions is a crime. This bill would, until the department adopts regulations relating to the provision of services by a chronic dialysis clinic, a surgical clinic, or a rehabilitation clinic, require those clinics to comply with prescribed federal certification standards in effect immediately preceding January 1, 2013. Because a violation of that requirement would be a crime, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The bill would require the department, by July 1, 2017, to conduct a public hearing and submit a prescribed report to the appropriate legislative committees. These provisions would become inoperative on January 1, 2018. Existing law requires the State Department of Public Health and the State Department of Developmental Services to jointly develop and implement licensing regulations appropriate for an intermediate care facility/developmentally disabled-nursing and an intermediate care facility/developmentally disabled-continuous nursing. This bill would, until the departments adopt those regulations, require that the facilities comply with applicable federal certification standards for intermediate care facilities for individuals with intellectual disabilities in effect immediately preceding January 1, 2013. These provisions would become inoperative on January 1, 2018. Existing law provides for the licensure and regulation by the State Department of Public Health of congregate living health facilities. Under existing law, a congregate living health facility is a residential home with a capacity of no more than 12 beds, except as provided, that provides inpatient care to persons with prescribed conditions, including persons who have a diagnosis of terminal illness or who are catastrophically and severely disabled. Existing law requires that a congregate living health facility be freestanding, but specifies that this does not preclude its location on the premises of a hospital. This bill would authorize the establishment of multiple congregate living health facilities in one multifloor building if certain requirements are met, including, among others, that each facility is separated by a wall, floor, or other permanent partition, and is located on former McClellan Air Force Base, as specified. This bill would make legislative findings and declarations as to the necessity of a special statute for these congregate living facilities. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
