The California Department of Health has issued a new All Facilities Letter, removing certain skilled nursing facilities from the "Special Focus Facility" list. This decision was made based on additional data received from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). As a result, these nursing homes and healthcare facilities no longer face heightened scrutiny and potential consequences for non-compliance. The letter advises affected facilities to contact their local Licensing and Certification district office if they have any questions. The removal from the list signifies that these facilities have demonstrated improved performance and compliance with state and federal regulations.
