The revised Long-Term Care Regulation Provider Letter PL 2022-29 provides guidance for new rules in Texas Administrative Code, affecting Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs) and Nursing Facilities (NFs). The new rules implement H.B. 1423, S.B. 199, S.B. 271, and S.B. 383, and include increased survey frequency for NFs, monthly inspections of automated external defibrillators in NFs, and out-of-state background check disclosure statements for ALF employee applicants. Additionally, both ALFs and NFs must provide memory care disclosure statements if they advertise or promote memory care services. The letter also outlines agency-initiated changes to ALF and NF rules. Facilities must comply with these new rules and utilize the appropriate forms as required.
