Nursing Homes-Liability Insur

Abstract

Amends the Nursing Home Care Act and the State Mandates Act. Provides that no person may establish or operate a nursing home in Illinois unless and until he or she provides to the Department of Public Health proof of liability insurance coverage in an amount not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence. Requires the Department to deny, suspend, revoke, or refuse to renew a license for failure to maintain liability insurance coverage. Provides that failure to maintain such liability insurance coverage during the term of a facility's license is a Type "A" violation under the Act. Provides that the Director of Public Health may not grant a waiver of a facility's compliance with the requirement to maintain liability insurance coverage. Provides that information concerning a facility's liability insurance coverage is subject to disclosure to the public. Makes other changes with respect to liability insurance coverage. Provides that a licensee shall pay 3 times the actual damages, or $500, whichever is greater (instead of only the actual damages) and costs and attorney's fees to a resident whose rights are violated. Provides that any mandate created by these provisions is exempt from reimbursement by the State.
