The bill enacts R.S. 40:2009.10.2, establishing state requirements for nursing facilities participating in the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Special Focus Facility Program. It mandates that any nursing facility selected for this program must undergo enhanced state oversight and fulfill specific obligations, including notifying current and prospective residents about their participation in the program due to noncompliance issues. Facilities must also provide residents the option to transfer to another facility if it meets their needs and comply with additional state requirements, such as attending a meeting with the Louisiana Department of Health and entering into an agreement to address noncompliance.

Furthermore, the bill outlines various measures that the Louisiana Department of Health may impose on noncompliant facilities, including increased monitoring, additional inspections, and the implementation of corrective actions. If a facility fails to meet the program's graduation requirements within eighteen months, the Department of Health is authorized to revoke its license. However, the department can revoke the license sooner if the facility's violations pose a serious risk to residents' health or safety.
