SF 2168: Relating to violations by a health care facility

Died when the session ended · The General Assembly adjourned on May 24, 2022. Bills that didn’t pass both chambers died.

What it does

This bill amends Iowa administrative code references for the purposes of the issuance of citations and assessment of fines by the department of inspections and appeals (DIA) for deficient practices of a health care facility. The bill provides that if a facility self-identifies a deficient practice prior to an on-site visit inspection, there has been no complaint filed with DIA related to that specific deficient practice, and the facility corrects such practice prior to an inspection, no citation shall be issued or fine assessed except for those penalties arising pursuant to certain specified Code or administrative code provisions.
