Bill Summary
AN ACT concerning health and healthcare; relating to the collection of civil penalties for violations of correction orders; establishing the disability community services providers civil monetary penalty reinvestment fund and the adult care homes civil monetary penalty reinvestment fund; amending K.S.A. 39-949 and K.S.A. 2024 Supp. 39-2016 and repealing the existing sections.
AI Summary
This bill modifies how civil penalties collected from violations of correction orders by the state fire marshal are handled, creating two new dedicated funds in the state treasury. Specifically, civil penalties from adult care homes and disability community services providers will now be deposited into separate, purpose-specific funds rather than the state general fund. For adult care homes, these funds can only be used by the Kansas Department for Aging and Disability Services to provide grants to current licensees for projects that improve residents' health, safety, and welfare. Similarly, for disability community services providers, the collected penalties will fund grants aimed at benefiting program participants. The bill establishes that these expenditures must be made in accordance with appropriation acts and approved by the secretary of aging and disability services or their designee. The legislation also makes some minor technical changes to language, such as updating spelling (e.g., "re-inspection" to "reinspection") and clarifying procedural details about how civil penalties are assessed and appealed. The bill will take effect upon publication in the state statute book.
