Bill Summary

Relative to regulating beds out of service at long term care facilities. Elder Affairs.

AI Summary

This bill allows long-term care facilities to maintain beds that are not currently in use (referred to as "beds out of service") upon request, and requires the Department of Public Health to establish a process for approving such requests. The bill applies retroactively to beds that were approved as "out of service" in 2018, and going forward will apply to beds approved as "out of service" under the new rules and regulations that the Department of Public Health must promulgate.
