The California Department of Health has issued a new All Facilities Letter (AFL) outlining the Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-2019 Health Care Facility License Fee Schedule. This letter informs licensees of the updated license renewal fees, effective July 1, 2018. Healthcare facilities, including nursing homes, must ensure they are aware of the new fee schedule and comply with the requirements. Renewal notices and applications will be sent to facilities 45-120 days prior to the license expiration date. Late payment penalties will be imposed for facilities that are delinquent in paying license renewal fees. Facilities must follow the outlined steps to complete their license renewal, including validating the number of beds, printing facility license numbers on checks, and mailing the application portion of the renewal notice to the Centralized Applications Unit. Facilities should allow 4-6 weeks for license processing.
