Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Nursing Home Care Act. Provides that the Department of Public Health may develop a program to collaborate with long-term care facilities on quality assurance issues.

Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes a reference to rules to be adopted by the Department of Public Health. Provides that neither the Governor nor any agency or agency head under the jurisdiction of the Governor has any rulemaking authority under the amendatory Act, but that the Governor may suggest rules by filing them with the General Assembly and requesting that the General Assembly authorize such rulemaking by law, enact the suggested rules into law, or take other appropriate action in the General Assembly's discretion.
