Bill Caption

Relating to an expedited on-site health inspection process for assisted living facility license applicants.

Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

HB 823 would require the executive commissioner of the Health and Human Services Commission to implement an expedited inspection process that allows an applicant for an assisted living facility license or license renewal to obtain an on-site inspection not later than the 21st day after the date the request is made. 

Vote Recommendation Notes

We expect HB 823 to facilitate quicker inspections resulting in less delay in issuing a license or license renewal for assisted living facilities. This is consistent with the principle of limited government, consequently we support HB 823.
