This bill amends existing laws related to long-term care in Oklahoma, specifically focusing on the Nursing Facilities Quality of Care Fee and the Oklahoma State Council on Aging and Adult Protective Services. It updates statutory language and includes provisions for the assessment of a Quality of Care Fee on licensed nursing facilities, which is intended to enhance the quality of care provided. The bill specifies that facilities operated by the Oklahoma Department of Veterans Affairs are exempt from this fee and outlines the calculation method for the fee based on patient gross receipts and patient days. Additionally, it establishes a revolving fund to support various Medicaid-related services and programs, including reimbursement for nursing facilities and personal needs allowance increases for residents.

Furthermore, the bill modifies the structure of the Oklahoma State Council on Aging and Adult Protective Services, transferring its establishment from the Attorney General's office to the Department of Human Services. This change aims to enhance the advisory capacity of the council in supporting the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman. The bill also includes provisions for the Attorney General to create rules regarding the operations of the Ombudsman, ensuring proper training, documentation, and conflict of interest management. An emergency clause is included, allowing the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
