health care institutions; licensing; complaints

Summary

The bill makes the state health department the sole entity responsible for licensing and monitoring health care institutions, and tells the health care cost containment system not to duplicate those duties. It also sets new rules for handling complaints, allowing off‑site reviews and closing cases when a provider shows compliance, and requiring the department to dismiss complaints filed more than a year after the incident. The goal is to streamline oversight and avoid redundant investigations.
