Overnight Respite in Certified Adult Day Care Rule

The Department of Health and Human Services was directed to pilot an overnight respite program in facilities that offer adult day care by Senate Bill 512 in Session Law 2011-104 with a repeal date of June 1, 2015. Rules were developed in response to this act by the General Assembly with the establishment of a new Subchapter entitled "Overnight Respite in Certified Adult Day Care Programs." This rule sets the scope of the rules in the Subchapter and identifies the expiration date of the rules, which concurs with the repeal date of the Session Law. The General Assembly rewrote the repeal date of the Session Law 2011-104 by extending it to June 30, 2017 with Senate Bill 291 in Session Law 2015-52. This rule is not current and is unnecessary due to this change, therefore is proposed to be repealed.
