Introduction and Overview

The program in Texas that regulates long-term care providers, including nursing and assisted living facilities, transitioned to the Texas Health and Human Services

Commission (HHSC) on September 1, 2017. Since 2004, this program had been housed at the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services, or DADS, which was dissolved on September 1 after a Sunset Commission review and subsequent

approval of Senate Bill 200 by the 84th Texas Legislature.

As part of this transformation, a new Regulatory Services division was created at HHSC, which consists of long-term care regulatory (LTCR) and four additional programs:

Child care licensing, which transitioned from the Department of Family and

Protective Services (DFPS); Provider investigations, which investigates allegations of abuse, neglect, and

exploitation in certain provider settings, including the State Supported Living

Centers and Medicaid waiver program group homes, and also transitioned from DFPS;

Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred from the Department of State

Health Services (DSHS); and Complaint and incident intake (CII), which also transitioned from DADS.

This report contains information and data from before Sept. 1, 2017, and as such, reflects regulatory activities conducted by the DADS LTCR program. It is important

to note that no employees, programs, or functions were eliminated as part of this transition, and LTCR leadership and staff worked hard to ensure that consumers, providers, and other stakeholders saw minimal, if any, disruption in services as a

result.

The program’s regulatory mission also remains the same: to protect the health and safety of the more than 1 million older Texans and those with disabilities who need services and supports to lead dignified, independent, and productive lives (Source:

DADS Sunset Report 2014). To continue fulfilling these critical functions in a state with a fast-growing older population, HHSC is evaluating the best approach to

address resource needs, such as front-line LTCR surveyor positions that were eliminated during the last legislative session. 1

The LTCR program regulates facilities, agencies, programs, and individual providers of long-term care services through:

Inspections and surveys

Follow-up visits

Complaint and incident investigations

Other contacts required for carrying out state and federal licensure or certification responsibilities, such as telephone monitoring

The following LTC facilities, agencies, and programs must be licensed or, if

1 74 vacant FTE positions in LTC Regulatory were eliminated as part of the Legislative Appropriations for 2018.

Page 3: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

exempt from licensure, certified by the state and comply with licensure rules (or federal certification requirements) to operate in Texas:

Assisted living facilities (ALFs)

Day activity and health services facilities (DAHS)

Home and community support services agencies (HCSSAs)

Intermediate care facilities for individuals with an intellectual disability or

related condition (ICFs/IID)

Nursing facilities (NFs)

Prescribed pediatric extended care centers (PPECCs)

Home and Community-based Services (HCS) waiver providers (certified,

exempt from licensure)

Texas Home Living (TxHmL) waiver providers (certified, exempt from

licensure)

The LTCR program also enrolls providers and manages the Medicaid provider

contract agreements for NFs and ICFs/IID to ensure they meet all federal

requirements to participate in the Medicaid program and are eligible to receive

Medicaid reimbursements. These enrollment activities include initial provider

contract enrollment, contract renewals, contract amendments, changes of

ownership, and facility relocations.

The LTCR program has also been responsible for the following activities and

programs related to the administration and operation of LTC facilities:

Nursing facility administrator licensing and investigations

Medication aides

Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation

Nurse aide certification

Employee Misconduct Registry

Background

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, in 2010 there were 3.8 million people in Texas age 60 and older; they made up approximately 15 percent of the total Texas

population of 25 million. This group is one of the fastest-growing populations in Texas, and is expected to more than triple between 2010 and 2050. By 2050, this group is expected to grow to 12 million. (Data source: US Census 2010 and Texas

State Data Center, University of Texas at San Antonio)

By 2050, Texans age 60 and older will comprise 22 percent of the total Texas population. As the older adult population increases, Texas will need more health and human services and community engagement activities (Texas State Plan on

Aging 2015-2017).

Most older Texans live in one of the 25 metropolitan areas in Texas. The 77 metro area counties contain 83 percent of the population age 60 and older. The remaining 17 percent of the older adult population lives in 177 rural counties. Sixty-eight rural

counties have a population density of less than seven people per square mile; less than 1 percent of Texans age 60 and older live in these less densely populated

counties. (Source: Texas State Plan on Aging 2015-2017)

Thirty-five percent of Texans age 60 and older (1.3 million) have one or more disabilities. Certain population groups are more likely to experience disability than others:

Disability is more common among women than among men age 75 and

older. This may reflect the fact that many more women than men live to be this age.

Among people age 65 and older with incomes below the poverty level, 54 percent have a disability, compared to 39 percent of those with incomes

above the poverty level. In Texas, the growth of the aging population and increased longevity will mean a

marked increase in the number of people age 85 and older. In 2010, the population age 85 and older was 305,000; by 2050, it is expected to increase to 1.6 million, an

increase of greater than 500 percent. This segment of the population will increase from 1.2 percent to 2.8 percent of the total population. Rates of disability and serious chronic illness tend to increase with age. This rapid increase in the number

of the oldest people is expected to increase the need for long-term services and supports. (Source: Texas State Plan on Aging 2015-2017)

Page 5: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Trends in Long-term Care

Along with the aging population, Texas has seen a steady or increasing need for NF and ALF beds. The average number of individuals receiving Medicaid-funded NF

services per month in FY 2012 was 57,006, and in FY 2017 that number had increased to 60,344. (Source: DADS state fiscal year 2014 Operating Budget – Claims Management System Payment Data – DADS Program Areas / State Plan on

Aging 2015-2017).

DADS regulated the allocation of Medicaid NF beds in Texas, and HHSC’s LTCR program now carries out this function. The number of bed allocations has not increased significantly, as NF occupancy rates remain significantly below capacity

despite a steady increase from 87,533 residents in 2011 to 93,106 in 2017. (See table on page 9 appendix).

ALFs continue to be the fastest-growing segment of long-term care in Texas. From 2011 to 2017, the number of these facilities grew faster than any other provider

type. In 2011, Texas had 33,182 ALF residents; in 2017, it had 44,520. (See table on page 9 appendix) This trend reflects the fact that more consumers are choosing

ALFs as an alternative to NF care. In part, this is because residents can receive home health and hospice services in ALFs, which allows them to “age in place” in

these facilities and delay or prevent the need for NF services. More ALFs also are focusing on “memory care” units to serve residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other types of dementia. In short, more ALFs are able to serve residents with

higher medical or other needs, making them attractive to residents and their families.

The state also has experienced a significant decline in the number of ICFs/IID and the number of residents served in this program. Both federal and state initiatives,

such as Money Follows the Person funding, have led to a reduction of individuals residing in large private ICFs/IID as well as the state-operated ICFs/IID in Texas,

known as state supported living centers (SSLCs). (Source: Legislative Budget Board Staff report to 82nd Legislature, January 2011).

As advocates continued to encourage these individuals to transition from institutional to community-based settings, the Legislature in the early 1990s

imposed a moratorium on new ICFs/IID and implemented three-person group homes under the Home and Community Services (HCS) waiver program. In the mid-90’s, the Legislature allowed HCS providers to serve four individuals, in part

due to an impending 27 percent rate reduction per individual per day.

These trends and initiatives are reflected in the data. In 2011, 9,833 individuals lived in ICFs/IID; in 2017, that number had declined to 7,937. (See table on page 9 appendix). For the SSLCs, the number of individuals served has declined from

3,557 in 2013 to 3,016 in 2017 – an 18 percent decline. (See table on page 17, appendix.)

A key part of the LTCR program’s responsibilities is to take the appropriate enforcement actions when providers fail to comply with relevant rules and

regulations. The enforcement data in this report reflect a significant increase in the

Page 6: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

imposition of Civil Monetary Penalties (CMPs) from previous years. This increase is primarily due to guidance from the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services

(CMS) to the state survey agencies regarding a 2016 mandatory imposition of federal remedies, which include CMPs.

CMS also implemented a federal rule that includes the Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Improvement Act of 2015. This provided for the amount of CMPs to be

inflation-adjusted and allowed for both a catch-up adjustment and thereafter an annual increase.

For home health and hospice agencies, a notable increase in administrative penalties may have been attributable to the increase of almost 1,000 more LTCR

visits to these agencies from FY 2016 to FY 2017, as well as the significant increase in the overall number of these agencies licensed in Texas.

Page 7: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Projects and Initiatives

The LTCR program has undertaken a variety of initiatives to improve the services it provides to consumers, providers, and other stakeholders, with many of these

efforts focused on improving the consistency of the survey process so that regulated entities are surveyed or investigated similarly across the state.

Immediate jeopardy reviews: As part of the effort to improve consistency, the LTCR survey operations team plans to expand the immediate jeopardy (IJ) call project

statewide in 2018. Three regions have been piloting these calls, during which state office survey and enforcement staff review potential IJ situations while the surveyor is still at a facility. Appropriate regional staff also join these calls. This new process

has improved consistency statewide in determining IJs and has helped surveyors gain the skills to better assess IJ situations.

Joint trainings with providers. HHSC plans to continue holding trainings for both regulatory surveyors and providers as part of its effort to improve consistency as

well as the services provided to individuals. These well-attended joint trainings have generated positive reviews from providers and survey staff alike. Examples of

joint training topics include how to provide “active treatment” to residents in ICFs/IID; writing acceptable plans of correction to resolve deficiencies; detecting

and preventing abuse and neglect of residents in facilities; and understanding the long-term care survey process.

Paperless referral process. A streamlined, paperless referral process was implemented for referral of nursing facility administrators, medication aides, and

certified nurse aides from survey staff to enforcement staff to assess appropriate penalties against these professionals. This new process has increased the efficiency and consistency in how referrals are made internally.

Streamlined policy guidance. Another effort LTCR has undertaken is a streamlining

of the way it issues policy guidance to providers, as required by House Bill 2025, 85th legislative session. This process includes an ongoing, systematic review of active policies – with the goal of retiring or revising and reissuing all information

that is eight years or older. LTCR policy staff has retired more than 200 out-of-date provider letters, which has dramatically reduced the overall number of policies that

providers must reference and follow. Staff also adopted a new template for policy documents to make them more understandable and to improve readability for both providers and staff.

Page 8: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Statutory Policy Recommendations

Fingerprint checks for certified nurse aides and medication aides: HHSC has identified a potential policy change for legislative consideration that would change

how criminal background checks are conducted for certified nurse aides (CNAs) and medication aides. The criminal background checks currently required for these aides are Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) name-based checks, which provide

only an initial, snap-shot view of an individual’s criminal history. Facilities are not required to conduct DPS or FBI fingerprint checks for aides, which would allow the

state and/or providers to receive ongoing notifications of any criminal history on the part of an employee – including any arrests, prosecutions, and convictions – that occur anywhere in the nation after the aide is hired.

Requiring the use of this so-called “rap back” service also would eliminate the need

for a facility to conduct name-based background checks on a nurse aide or other employee before hiring. A fingerprint search is also more accurate than a name-based search and is used in other HHSC areas, such as the SSLCs and the nursing

facility administrator program. Under this type of background check system, HHSC LTCR staff would receive and assess the results of the initial finger-print criminal

background check and, through ongoing “rap back” reports, be notified of any additional arrests or convictions going forward.

If the state moves to requiring fingerprint checks, providers would see greater protection from hiring or continuing to employ unqualified CNAs or medication

aides. This would reduce their risk of receiving regulatory citations, which can include imposition of administrative penalties.

While a formal fiscal analysis would need to be conducted, HHSC does see some likely costs to making this policy change and will therefore defer to state lawmakers

on how best to approach this issue.

Rewrite the ALF rules, focusing on disaster plan requirements: Hurricane Harvey illustrated the need for facilities to have robust, updated disaster plans with staff trained on how to execute them. LTCR’s recommendation would be to implement

more specific regulations for ALFs related to the content of emergency plans and require mandatory compliance with emergency evacuation orders. LTCR staff would

work with ALF provider groups, legislative staff, and other stakeholders to explore how to make the guidance for these emergency plans more helpful, clear, and prescriptive and more in line with the guidance offered to NFs.

In the wake of Hurricane Harvey, LTCR staff received multiple questions from ALF

provider groups regarding these emergency plans, so staff anticipates that a consensus can be achieved through a collaborative rule-making process. However, having statutory guidance on this effort would be helpful.

Conclusion

HHSC’s LTCR leadership believes it is critical to continue focusing on streamlining regulatory practices, reducing duplicative regulation, limiting unnecessary

expenditures, and using technology and innovation wherever possible. This is

Page 9: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

particularly critical given the challenges and demands facing state agencies and providers in the rapidly changing health and human services environment.

The goal of HHSC’s recent transformation is to make each program area, including

LTCR, well-integrated, accountable, and focused on achieving the best outcomes possible for both the taxpayer and the individuals that rely on the agency’s services.

A key part of this effort is to continue focusing on quality improvement. For

providers, this means implementing and enforcing quality assurance programs to improve operations, compliance with regulations, and services. For HHSC, it means continuing efforts both within LTCR and other areas of the agency, such as the

Quality Monitoring Program, to assist providers in their journey toward continual improvement. Texas has made significant strides on certain key measures of

quality, including a notable reduction in the inappropriate use of antipsychotic medications in facilities, and HHSC believes it’s vital to maintain this momentum.

To achieve the vision of transformation and quality improvement, the HHSC system must further efforts to break down bureaucratic silos and ensure that providers,

managed care organizations, regulators, advocates, and other stakeholders all work together to pursue innovations and improvements to protect the health and safety

of our most vulnerable Texans.

Provider Descriptions

Provider Descriptions

The long-term care regulatory program regulates the following provider types in Texas.

Assisted Living Facilities

Assisted living facilities (ALFs) provide individualized health and personal care

assistance in a homelike setting with an emphasis on personal dignity, autonomy,

independence, and privacy. Facilities can be large apartment-like settings or private

residences. Services include meals, bathing, dressing, toileting, and administering or

supervising medication.

There are three types of assisted living facilities in Texas:

Type A

Residents must be physically and mentally capable of evacuating unassisted

during an emergency, must not require routine attendance during nighttime

sleeping hours, and must be capable of following directions during an

emergency.

Type B

Residents may require staff assistance to evacuate, be incapable of following

directions during an emergency, require attendance during nighttime

sleeping hours, and require assistance in transferring to and from a

wheelchair but must not be permanently bedfast.

Type C

A four-bed facility licensed by the state as an adult foster care facility.

Day Activity and Health Services Facilities

Day activity and health services facilities provide regular services under the Day

Activity and Health Services (DAHS) program, but not overnight, to four or more

people who or older or who have disabilities who are not related to the owner of

the facility by blood, marriage, or adoption. DAHS is a structured, comprehensive

program designed to meet the needs of adults with functional impairments by

providing health, social, and related services in a protective setting. Residents of

facilities that hold a DAHS contract receive services based on an individual plan of

care and in half-day (three to six hours) units of service. A resident can receive a

maximum of 10 units of service per week, depending on a physician’s orders and

related requirements.

Page 14: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Home and Community Support Services Agencies

Home and community support services agencies (HCSSAs) provide one or more home

health, hospice, or personal assistance services for people in a residence or

independent living environment. These services include:

Home Health Services

Nursing; physical, occupational, speech, or respiratory therapy; medical or

social services; intravenous therapies; dialysis; services by unlicensed

personnel; medical equipment and supplies (excluding drugs); or nutritional

counseling.

Hospice Services

Intervention services that focus primarily on the reduction or abatement of

physical, psychological, and spiritual symptoms of the terminally ill consumer

and support services for clients and their families.

Personal Assistance Services

Routine ongoing care or services required by an individual in a residence

or independent living environment that enable the recipient to engage in

activities of daily living or to perform the physical functions required for

independent living, including respite services.

The types of providers are:

Parent Agency

The agency that develops and maintains administrative controls and

supervises branch offices and alternate delivery sites.

Branch Office

An agency or site in the parent agency’s service area that provides home

health or personal assistance services or maintains active client records.

Alternate Delivery Site

An agency or site in the parent agency’s service area that is not the

agency’s principal place of business and from which the agency provides

hospice services.

Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with an Intellectual Disability or Related Conditions

Intermediate care facilities for individuals with an intellectual disability or related

conditions (ICFs/IID) are residential facilities that provide services to four or more

people, including active treatment services. Active treatment, the core requirement

of certification for ICFs/IID, is the robust, consistent implementation of a program of

specialized and generic training, treatment, and health services. These facilities

include both licensed (private) and non-licensed (state-operated) providers.

Nursing Facilities

Nursing facilities (NFs) are residential facilities that provide care for people whose

medical condition regularly requires the skills of licensed nurses. NFs provide for the

medical, social, and psychological needs of residents, including room and board,

Page 15: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

social services, over-the-counter drugs (prescription drugs may be covered through

the Medicaid Vendor Drug program or Medicare Part D), medical supplies and

equipment, rehabilitative services, and personal needs items.

The NF types are:

Non-Participating: A licensed NF not certified to participate in Medicare or Medicaid.

NF: A licensed NF certified to participate in Medicaid.

Skilled NF: A licensed NF certified to participate in Medicare.

Skilled NF/NF: A licensed NF certified to participate in both Medicare and Medicaid.

Hospital-based Skilled NF: A NF certified to participate in Medicare

operating under the license of a hospital.

Swing Beds: A NF certified to participate in Medicare with contracted

services located in a rural hospital.

Prescribed Pediatric Extended Care Centers

As of Jan. 1, 2015, providers are able to obtain a license to operate a prescribed

pediatric extended care center (PPECC) in Texas. These centers function as a non-

residential facility operated for profit or as a nonprofit basis and provide physician-

prescribed basic services to seven or more medically- dependent or technologically-

dependent individuals age 21 or under. The maximum capacity for a PPEC cannot

exceed 60 minors.

These individuals can receive up to 12 hours of basic services per day including:

Medical

Nursing

Psychosocial

Therapeutic

Developmental

As of Aug. 31, 2017, DADS had not licensed any PPECs.

Waiver Programs

The Home and Community-based Services and Texas Home Living programs are

Medicaid waiver programs approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid

Services (CMS) pursuant to 1915(c) of the Social Security Act. They provide

community-based services and supports to eligible recipients with intellectual and

developmental disabilities as an alternative to the ICF/IID program.

The waiver programs certified (not licensed) by Regulatory Services are:

Home and Community-based Services

Home and Community-based Services (HCS) provides community-based

services and supports as an alternative to institutional placement. Program

services supplement services and supports a person may receive from other

programs, such as Texas Health Steps, or from natural supports, such as

Page 16: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

family, neighbors, or community organizations. To qualify for services in HCS,

a recipient must have a diagnosis of an intellectual or developmental

disability and must be eligible for Medicaid. HCS serves people of any age.

Participants live in the community in a variety of settings, including their own

home, their family’s home, a home with a foster care or a companion care

provider, or in a three- or four-person group home. Most participants receive

Supplemental Security Income, Social Security, or other benefits, which are

used to pay their rent, utilities, food, and living expenses. The program pays

for services such as residential or in-home and community supports, nursing,

day habilitation, respite, behavioral supports, specialized therapies, dental,

minor home modifications, adaptive aids, and supported employment. The

types and amounts of services received are based on the recipient’s needs.

Medical services are typically provided by physicians or hospitals that accept

Medicaid.

Texas Home Living

Texas Home Living (TxHmL) provides services and supports to Texans with

intellectual or developmental disabilities who are eligible for Medicaid so they

can continue to live with their families or in their own homes. Program

services supplement services and supports a person may receive from other

programs, such as Texas Health Steps, or from natural supports such as

family, neighbors, or community organizations. The program does not offer

residential services. It serves people of any age and pays for services such as

in-home or community supports, nursing, day habilitation, respite, behavioral

supports, specialized therapies, dental, minor home modifications, adaptive

aids, and employment assistance.

Home and Community Support Services Agency Expiration of Licenses (in Lieu of

Instead of pursuing additional enforcement actions, the state regulatory agency can

allow a home and community support services agency to let its license expire.

During FY 2017, 20 of these agencies were allowed to expire their license in lieu of

further enforcement actions.

Home and Community Support Services Agency Surrender of Licenses (in Lieu of

Enforcement Actions)

license, instead of receiving additional enforcement actions. In FY 2017, 34 home

and community support services agencies surrendered their license in lieu of further

enforcement actions.

Vendor Holds

During FY 2017, DADS placed four waiver contracts on vendor hold.

Denial of Certification

Unlicensed Facilities

The long-term care regulatory program addresses violators of state licensing laws

who operate facilities without a required license. The agency responds to complaints

from the public and other entities alleging facilities are operating without a license

and, if the agency finds a facility is in violation of licensure laws, it can refer a

facility to the Office of the Attorney General or the local, county or district attorney

for relocation of residents, injunctive relief, and/or civil penalties.

Page 46: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

During FY 2017, DADS referred 26 unlicensed facilities for injunctive/other relief

and civil penalties. Of those, all 26 referrals were to the Office of the Attorney

General.

Nursing Facility Civil Money Penalties

The federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) or the state regulatory

program can impose a civil money penalty (CMP) for the number of days that a skilled

nursing or nursing facility is not in substantial compliance with one or more of the

conditions to participate in Medicare or Medicaid, or for each instance that a facility is

not in substantial compliance — regardless of whether the deficiencies constitute

immediate jeopardy. CMS or the state also can impose a CMP for the number of days

of previous noncompliance since the last standard survey, including the number of

days of immediate jeopardy.

In FY 2017, CMS imposed 292 CMPs against facilities participating in the Medicare

program; DADS imposed two CMPs against facilities that contracted for Medicaid only.

Assisted Living Facility (ALF) and Unlicensed Facility Section

Assisted Living Facility (ALF) and Unlicensed Facility Actions

The tables on page 43 contain information relating to Texas Health and Safety Code, Title 4, Subtitle B, Chapter 247, Assisted Living Facilities, facility actions and unlicensed facility actions, by category, for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Administrative Penalties

Basis for Imposing

The state long-term care regulatory program can assess an administrative penalty against a person who:

Violates this chapter or a rule, standard, or order adopted under this chapter or a term of a license issued under this chapter.

Makes a false statement, that the person knows or should know is false, of a material fact:

o On an application for issuance or renewal of a license or in an

attachment to the application.

o With respect to a matter under investigation by the regulatory agency.

Refuses to allow a representative of the department to inspect:

o A book, record or file required to be maintained by a day activity and health services facility.

o Any portion of the premises of an assisted living facility.

Willfully interferes with the work of a representative of the regulatory agency or the enforcement of this chapter.

Willfully interferes with a representative of the regulatory agency preserving

evidence of a violation of this chapter or a rule, standard, or order adopted under this chapter or a term of a license issued under this chapter.

Fails to pay a penalty assessed under this chapter before the 30th day after the date the assessment of the penalty becomes final.

Fails to notify the regulating agency of a change of ownership before the

effective date of the change of ownership.

Imposed

An action can be recommended by:

The regional survey or investigation team and supported during enforcement review.

The regional or state office Regulatory Services staff, considering the survey or investigation findings or evaluating the facility’s

past history or performance.

State regulatory staff impose the action when the administrative penalty recommendation has been reviewed and confirmed by state office. The facility is

formally notified of the administrative penalty citation and the penalty amount. Additionally, the notice includes information about the appeal process available to

the facility.

Page 61: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Assessed

Penalties assessed are the final actions after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount has

been decided, or if the person charged consents to the penalty or does not respond in a timely manner to the notice of the penalty. The facility is notified of the amount to be paid and the date payment is due. A lump sum payment or a monthly payment

plan may be agreed upon during the appeal or settlement process.

Injunctive/Other Relief and Civil Penalty Referrals

The regulating agency can refer a licensed or unlicensed facility to the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) or district attorney or county attorney under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 247. When a case is resolved through settlement, a

portion of the payment is designated a civil penalty and normally deposited to general revenue. The Office of the Attorney General receives the portion designated

as attorney fees and costs.

Although there may be several survey or investigative visits to the same facility resulting in civil penalty recommendations, the recommendations are generally

consolidated into one case when referred to the Office of the Attorney General.

A civil penalty can be awarded if a facility violates a licensing rule and the state

determines the violation threatens resident health and safety, or if the facility is operating without a license.

Amelioration of Violations

In certain situations, the regulatory agency’s commissioner can allow, in lieu of demanding payment of an administrative penalty, the use (under the agency’s

supervision) of any portion of the penalty to ameliorate the violation or to improve services (other than administrative services) in the facility affected by the violation.

Trusteeships

The state regulatory program, through the Office of the Attorney General, can petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the involuntary appointment or

appointment by agreement of a trustee to operate a facility if one or more of the following conditions exist:

The facility is operating without a license.

The facility’s license has been suspended or revoked.

License suspension or revocation procedures against a facility are pending and an imminent threat to the health and safety of the residents exists.

An emergency presents an immediate threat to the health and safety of

residents.

The facility is closing (whether voluntarily or through an emergency closing order), and arrangements for relocation of the residents to other licensed

institutions have not been made before closure.

Emergency Suspension and Closing Orders

The state will suspend a facility’s license or order an immediate closing of all or part of the facility if:

The agency finds that the facility is operating in violation of the licensure

Page 62: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

rules.

The violation creates an immediate threat to the health and safety of a

resident.

The order suspending a license or closing a part of a facility is either immediately

effective on the date the license holder receives written notice, or on a later date specified in the order. This suspension may occur simultaneously with any other enforcement provision available to DADS. The order is effective for 10 days.

Denial of License

The regulatory program can deny a facility’s license when the facility does not meet

licensure rules.

More specifically, it can deny a facility’s license if a facility:

Violates Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 247 or the rules adopted under it in a repeated or substantial manner.

Aids, abets, or permits a substantial violation of the rules.

Fails to submit required information and documents needed to complete the application process or provides false or fraudulent information.

Fails to pay certain fees.

Applicant has had a license revoked, has been debarred or excluded from the Medicare or Medicaid program, has a court injunction prohibiting the applicant or manager from operating a facility, has been subject to certain enforcement actions, has a criminal conviction, has an unsatisfied judgment, has been evicted or has had a license suspended.

Committed any act described by Texas Health and Safety Code §247.0451(a)(2)–(6).

Has violated Texas Health and Safety Code §247.021.

Any controlling person subject to refusal or denial as described in Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part 1, Chapter 99, Denial or Refusal of License.

Revocation of License

The regulating agency can revoke a facility’s license for a violation of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 247 or a rule adopted under this chapter.

More specifically, it can revoke a license when the license holder:

Violates Texas Health and Safety Code §247.0451(a)(2)–(6).

Violates Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 247 or the rules adopted under it in a repeated or substantial manner.

Submits false or misleading statements on an application.

Uses subterfuge or other evasive means to obtain a license.

Conceals a material fact or fails to disclose a material fact on a license application.

Violates Texas Health and Safety Code §247.021.

Notes:

1. Assessed administrative penalties can include final actions on penalties

imposed in a previous fiscal year.

2. The agency refers injunctive/other relief and civil penalties to the county or

district attorney if the agency has an existing agreement to do so; otherwise,

they are referred to the Office of the Attorney General.

3. The agency can propose to deny renewal of a license for many reasons.

However, if a facility has been cited for one or more violations of the

licensing rules and those violations have not been determined to have been

corrected by the date the facility’s license is due for renewal, the agency can

propose to deny the application. If the facility subsequently corrects the

violation(s), the agency can withdraw its proposal to deny the application for

license renewal. Denied actions may also include final actions on cases

proposed in a previous fiscal year.

4. Revoked actions can include final actions on cases proposed in a previous

fiscal year.

penalties imposed.

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the state has reviewed and confirmed the administrative

penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if there is no alternative amount resulting from an

appeal held or settlement agreement reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount of penalty due after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement

to settle has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or if the person charged consents to the penalty

Page 69: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

or does not respond timely to the notice of the penalty.

3. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid to DADS.

4. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. These amounts do not necessarily reflect the final

amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated settlement. Since these

amounts may change, there is no total for this column. An administrative penalty with a negative balance may

indicate an overpayment or that the penalty was rescinded after payment.

5. The “H” column stands for hearing, and a “Y” in this column indicates the facility requested a hearing on the

violation. Once a facility requests and meets the criteria for a hearing on the violation, the case results will be

pending until the appeal process is complete. An “N” indicates the facility did not request a hearing.

Assisted Living and Unlicensed Facility Complaint and Incident Intakes

Complaints

A complaint allegation is an assertion that a requirement of state licensure has been violated and can come directly from individuals or residents, family members, health care providers, advocates, law enforcement, or other state agencies. Report sources can be

oral or written.

Incidents

An incident is an official notification to the state survey agency from an assisted living facility provider that the physical or mental health or welfare of a resident has been or may be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect, or abuse. These reports also include

injuries of unknown source and exploitation or misappropriation of consumer or resident property.

Priority Assignment

The regulatory program’s complaint intake unit evaluates each complaint based on its

unique circumstances and assigns priorities accordingly. When timeliness is crucial to the health and safety of a resident(s), such as in a situation of heating or air conditioner equipment failure, alleged staff walkout, etc., an investigation can be initiated

immediately by telephone, regardless of the priority code assignment. After the initial contact, each complaint is assigned a priority. The priorities available are:

• On or before 24 hours

• On or before 14 calendar days

• On or before 30 calendar days

• On or before 45 calendar days

• Professional review

• Withdrawn

• Not required

On or Before 24 Hours

Immediate response by regulatory investigators is warranted because a provider

allegedly created or allowed a present and ongoing situation in which the provider’s noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has failed to protect residents from abuse, neglect, or mistreatment or has caused, or is likely to

cause, serious injury, harm, impairment or death to a resident.

On or Before 14 Calendar Days

The present or ongoing threat of continued abuse, neglect, or mistreatment has been removed. The resident is no longer in imminent danger; however, the provider’s alleged

noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification may have or has a high potential to cause harm that impacts a resident’s mental, physical or

psychosocial status and is of such consequence that a rapid response by Regulatory Services is indicated. There is evidence or suspicion that system(s) failure contributed to or brought on the threat. Usually, specific rather than general information (e.g.

descriptive identifiers, individual names, date, time, location of occurrence, description of harm) will factor into the assignment of this level of priority.

Page 79: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

On or Before 30 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has caused or may cause harm that is of limited consequence and does not

significantly impair the resident’s mental, physical or psychosocial status.

On or Before 45 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has a low potential for more than minimal harm or resulted in physical,

mental, or psychosocial harm that did not directly affect resident health and safety and functional status. This priority may also be assigned for alleged violations of regulations that do not directly affect resident health and safety.

Professional Review

A provider who has cause to believe the physical or mental health or welfare of a

resident has been or may be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect, or abuse must self-report to the state survey agency immediately upon learning of the alleged conduct

or conditions. This notice could include injuries of unknown source and exploitation or misappropriation of resident property.

Complaint intake staff assign a professional review priority when a provider self-reports an incident and the provider’s oral report indicates that the provider’s immediate corrective action is reasonably likely to ensure that abuse, neglect, mistreatment, or

injury to the resident will not occur again, or at least not while the provider conducts its investigation and professional quality assurance staff reviews the provider’s written

investigation report.

Based on review of the facility investigation report, if further investigation is warranted to assess whether the provider’s abuse prohibition policies ensure compliance with

regulatory requirements, the professional review unit will send notification to regulatory regional staff to schedule an on-site investigation.

Withdrawn

A complaint report filed with the regulatory agency is withdrawn at the request of the

complainant, except when abuse, neglect, or exploitation is alleged. Please refer to Survey and Certification Clarification 15-01

(https://www.dads.state.tx.us/providers/communications/2015/scc/SCC2015-01.pdf).

Not Required

The state determines it has no jurisdiction to investigate a complaint or a referral, or a report to another agency, board, or entity is required.

Day Activity and Health Services (DAHS) Facility Section

Day Activity and Health Services (DAHS) Facility Actions

The table on page 59 contains information relating to Texas Human Resources Code, Title 6, Chapter 103, Day Activity and Health Services, facility actions, by category, for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Administrative Penalties

Basis for Imposing

The long-term care regulatory program can assess an administrative penalty against a

person who:

Violates this chapter; a rule, standard or order adopted under this chapter; or a term of a license issued under this chapter.

Makes a false statement, that the person knows or should know is false, of a material fact:

° On an application for issuance or renewal of a license or in an attachment to the application.

° With respect to a matter under investigation by the regulatory agency. Refuses to allow a representative of the agency to inspect:

° A book, record or file required to be maintained by a day activity and health services facility.

° Any portion of the premises of an assisted living facility.

Willfully interferes with the work of a representative of the agency or the enforcement of this chapter.

Willfully interferes with a representative of the agency preserving evidence of a violation of this chapter or a rule, standard, or order adopted under this chapter or a term of a license issued under this chapter.

Fails to pay a penalty assessed under this chapter before the 30th day after the date the assessment of the penalty becomes final.

Fails to notify the agency of a change of ownership before the effective date of the change of ownership.

Imposed

An action can be recommended by:

The regional survey or investigation team and supported during enforcement

review.

Regional or state office staff, considering the survey or investigation findings or evaluating the facility’s history and performance.

The state imposes the action when the administrative penalty recommendation has been reviewed and confirmed by state office. The facility is formally notified of the

administrative penalty citation and the penalty amount. Additionally, the notice includes information about the appeal process available to the day activity and health services provider.

Assessed

Penalties assessed are the final actions after the appeal process has been completed (or

Page 87: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

an agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or if the person charged consents to the penalty or does not respond in a timely manner to the

notice of the penalty. The provider is notified of the amount to be paid and the date payment is due. A lump-sum payment or a monthly payment plan may be agreed upon

during the appeal or settlement process.

Injunctive or Other Relief Referrals to the Office of the Attorney General

Injunctive or other relief cases are referred to the Office of the Attorney General for

action if the regulating agency finds a violation that creates an immediate threat to resident health and safety or the facility is operating without a license.

Emergency Suspension and Closing Orders

The state will suspend a facility’s license or order an immediate closing of all or part of the facility if:

The agency finds that the facility is operating in violation of the licensure rules.

The violation creates an immediate threat to the health and safety of a resident.

The order suspending a license or closing a part of a facility is immediately effective on the date the license holder receives written notice or on a later date specified in the order. This suspension of a license may occur simultaneously with any other enforcement

provision available to the agency. The order is valid for 10 days.

Denial of License

The regulating agency can deny a facility’s license when the facility substantially fails to comply with certain rule requirements or the license holder aids, abets or permits

substantial violation of the rules; fails to provide required information or provides false or fraudulent information; fails to pay certain fees; the license holder has operated a facility that has been decertified or had its contract terminated, has been subject to sanctions,

has a criminal conviction, has an unsatisfied final judgment, or has been evicted or had its license suspended; or any controlling person is subject to denial or refusal of a license

as described in Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part 1, Chapter 99, Denial or Refusal of License.

Revocation of License

The state can revoke the license of a license holder who violates the rules or standards for licensing required by Texas Human Resources Code Chapter 103.

The agency also can revoke a license if the licensee submitted false or misleading statements in the application for license, used subterfuge or other evasive means to obtain a license, or concealed a material fact or failed to disclose information that would

have been the basis to deny a license.

The revocation of a license can occur simultaneously with any other enforcement

provision.

previous fiscal year.

2. Injunctive or other relief cases are referred to the Office of the Attorney General.

3. The agency can propose to deny renewal of a license for many reasons. However, if

a facility has been cited for one or more violations of the licensing rules and those

violations have not been determined to have been corrected by the date the

facility’s license is due for renewal, the agency can propose to deny the application.

If the facility subsequently corrects the violation(s), the agency can withdraw its

proposal to deny the application for license renewal. Denied actions may also

include final actions on cases proposed in a previous fiscal year.

4. Revoked actions can include final actions on cases proposed in a previous fiscal

year.

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the state has reviewed and confirmed the administrative

penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if there is no alternative amount resulting from an

appeal held or settlement agreement reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount of penalty due after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement

to settle has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or if the person charged consents to the penalty

or does not respond timely to the notice of the penalty.

3. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid to DADS.

4. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. These amounts do not necessarily reflect the final

amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated settlement. Since these

amounts may change, there is no total for this column. An administrative penalty with a negative balance may

indicate an overpayment or that the penalty was rescinded after payment.

Page 90: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

5. The “H” column stands for hearing, and a “Y” in this column indicates the facility requested a hearing on the

violation. Once a facility requests and meets the criteria for a hearing on the violation, the case results will be

pending until the appeal process is complete. An “N” indicates the facility did not request a hearing.

Day Activity and Health Services Facility Injunctive or Other Relief Referrals to the Office of the Attorney General for FY

Day Activity and Health Services Facility Complaint and Incident Intakes

Complaints

A complaint allegation is an assertion that a requirement of state licensure has been violated and can come directly from individuals or residents, family members, health care providers, advocates, law enforcement, or other state agencies. Report sources can be

oral or written.

Incidents

An incident is an official notification to the state survey agency from a day activity and health services provider that the physical or mental health or welfare of a consumer has been or may be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect or abuse. These reports also

include injuries of unknown source and exploitation or misappropriation of consumer or resident property.

Priority Assignment

Complaint and incident intake staff evaluates each complaint based on its unique

circumstances and assigns priorities accordingly. When timeliness is crucial to consumer health and safety, such as in a situation of heating or air conditioner equipment failure, alleged staff walkout, etc., an investigation is initiated immediately by telephone,

regardless of the priority code assignment. After the initial contact, each complaint is assigned a priority. The priorities are:

• On or before 24 hours

• On or before 14 calendar days

• On or before 30 calendar days

• Professional review

• Withdrawn

• Not required

On or Before 24 Hours

Immediate response by Regulatory Services is warranted because a provider allegedly created or allowed a present and ongoing situation in which the provider’s noncompliance

with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has failed to protect consumers from abuse, neglect, or mistreatment or has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a consumer.

On or Before 14 Calendar Days

The present or ongoing threat of continued abuse, neglect, or mistreatment has been removed. The consumer(s) is no longer in imminent danger; however, the provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification may

have or has a high potential to cause harm that impacts a consumer’s mental, physical, or psychosocial status and is of such consequence that a rapid response by Regulatory

Services is indicated. There is evidence or suspicion that system(s) failure contributed to or brought on the threat. Usually, specific rather than general information (e.g. descriptive identifiers, individual names, date, time, location of occurrence, description of

harm) will factor into the assignment of this level of priority.

Page 93: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

On or Before 30 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has caused or may cause harm that is of limited consequence and does not

significantly impair the consumer’s mental, physical, or psychosocial status.

Page 94: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Professional Review

A provider who has cause to believe the physical or mental health or welfare of a consumer(s) has been or may be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect, or abuse

must self-report to the state survey agency immediately upon learning of the alleged conduct or conditions. This notice could include injuries of unknown source and exploitation or misappropriation of consumer property.

Complaint intake staff assign a professional review priority when a provider self-reports an incident to the state and the provider’s oral report indicates that the provider’s

immediate corrective action is reasonably likely to ensure that abuse, neglect, mistreatment or injury to the consumer(s) will not occur again, or at least not while the provider conducts its investigation and professional quality assurance staff reviews the

provider’s written investigation report.

Based on review of the facility investigation report, if further investigation is warranted to

assess whether the provider’s abuse prohibition policies ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, the professional review unit will send notification to regulatory regional staff to schedule an on-site investigation.

Withdrawn

A complaint report filed with the state is withdrawn at the request of the complainant, except when abuse, neglect, or exploitation is alleged. Please refer to Survey and Certification Clarification 15-01

(https://www.dads.state.tx.us/providers/communications/2015/scc/SCC2015-01.pdf).

Not Required

The state determines it has no jurisdiction to investigate a complaint or a referral, or a report to another agency, board, or entity is required.

Home and Community Support Services Agency (HCSSA) Section

Home and Community Support Services Agency (HCSSA) Actions

The table on pages 70 and 71 contain information relating to Texas Health and Safety Code, Title 2, Subtitle G, Chapter 142, Home and Community Support Services, agency actions, by category for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Administrative Penalties

Basis for Imposing

An administrative penalty can be assessed against a person who violates requirements of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 142 or Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part

1, Chapter 97, Licensing Standards for Home and Community Support Service Agencies, or Texas Occupations Code, Title 3, Subtitle A, Chapter 102, Solicitation of Patients.

Imposed

The long-term care regulatory program imposes the action when the administrative

penalty recommendation has been reviewed and confirmed by state office. The home and community support services agency is formally notified of the administrative penalty

citation and the penalty amount. Additionally, the notice includes information about the appeal process available to the agency.

Assessed

Penalties assessed are the final actions after the appeal process has been completed (or

an agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount and due date have been decided, or the person accepts the determination by the regulatory agency or fails to respond to the notice letter in a timely manner. The home and community support

services agency is notified of the amount to be paid and the date payment is due. A lump-sum payment or a monthly payment plan can be agreed upon during the appeal or

settlement process.

Civil Penalties

A person is liable for a civil penalty, of not less than $1,000 or more than $2,500 for

each day of the violation, if he or she:

Engages in the business of providing home health, hospice, or

personal assistance services for pay without a license issued

under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 142 and Texas

Administrative Code Title 40, Chapter 97.

Represents to the public that he or she is a provider of home

health, hospice, or personal assistance services for pay without a

license issued under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 142

and Texas Administrative Code Title 40, Chapter 97.

An action to recover a civil penalty is in addition to an action brought for injunctive relief under Texas Health and Safety Code §142 .013 or any other remedy provided by law. The

Office of the Attorney General pursues this action on behalf of the state to collect the civil penalty.

Denials of License Application

The state regulatory agency can deny a license for any of the reasons specified in Texas

Page 99: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Administrative Code Title 40 §97.21 (relating to denial of an application for a license), such as:

Failure to comply with the statute.

Failure to comply with the licensure requirements.

Knowingly aiding, abetting, or permitting another person to violate the statute or licensure requirements.

Failure to meet the criteria for a license established in Texas Administrative Code

Title 40 §97.11 (relating to criteria and eligibility for licensing).

Denials of License Renewal

The state also can deny the application to renew a license of an existing home and community support services agency.

Expirations of License (in Lieu of Enforcement Actions)

Instead of pursuing additional enforcement actions, the state can choose to allow a home and community support services agency to let its license expire.

Immediate Suspensions

The suspension of a home and community support services agency license can be on an

emergency basis. The suspension is effective immediately and is in effect until lifted. The agency is provided an opportunity for a hearing no later than seven days after the effective date of the suspension.

Surrenders of License (in Lieu of Enforcement Actions)

The state can offer an agency the option to surrender its license, instead of receiving

additional enforcement actions.

License Revocations

The regulating agency can revoke a license issued to an applicant or agency if the

applicant or agency:

Fails to comply with any provision of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 142.

Fails to comply with any provision of Texas Administrative Code Title 40, Chapter 97.

Engages in conduct that violates Texas Occupations Code Chapter 102.

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the state has reviewed and confirmed the

administrative penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if no alternative amount

results from an appeal or if no settlement agreement reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount due after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement to

settle has been reached) and a final amount and due date have been decided, or the person accepts the

Page 154: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

determination by the regulating agency or fails to respond to the notice letter in a timely manner.

3. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid to the agency.

4. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. These amounts do not necessarily reflect the

final amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated settlement.

Since these amounts can change, this column is not totaled.

Home and Community Support Services Agency Complaint and Incident Intakes

Complaints

A complaint allegation is an assertion that a requirement of state licensure or federal

Page 170: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

certification has been violated and can come directly from individuals or residents, family

members, health care providers, advocates, law enforcement, or other state agencies. Report sources can be oral or written.

Incidents

An incident is an allegation of abuse, neglect, or misappropriation of property; an allegation of conduct or a condition resulting in the exploitation of consumers; or any act

allegedly perpetrated by agency staff and reported by agency management or other agency staff.

Priority Assignment

The long-term care regulatory intake unit evaluates each complaint or incident based on its unique circumstances and assigns priorities accordingly. When timeliness is crucial to

the health and safety of a consumer(s), such as in a situation of heating or air conditioner equipment failure (if the consumer is in an inpatient hospice unit), alleged staff walkout,

etc., an investigation can be initiated immediately by telephone, regardless of the priority code assignment. After the initial telephone contact, an on-site visit is conducted according to the timeframe specified by the priority assignment. The priorities that can be

assigned to a home and community support services agency are:

On or before two working days

On or before 10 working days

On or before 45 calendar days

On or before 45 working days

On or before 90 working days

Next on-site

Desk review

Withdrawn

Not applicable

On or Before Two Working Days

Immediate response by the regulatory agency is warranted because a home and community support services agency provider allegedly created or allowed a present and

ongoing situation in which the provider’s noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has failed to protect consumers or has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death.

On or Before 10 Working Days

Alleged provider noncompliance might have or has a high potential to cause harm that affects a consumer’s mental, physical, or psychosocial well-being and is of such consequence that a rapid response by the regulatory agency is indicated. The complaint

allegation(s) asserts that one or more of the following exist:

Nursing care was not delivered as planned to a consumer with present and ongoing need for nursing care.

There was a break in service for skilled services for Medicaid waiver consumers.

Home and community support services agency personnel were not available to the consumers during normal operating hours.

Page 171: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

The consumer sustained harm from improper or inadequate care and service provision.

Immediate threat to health and safety has been removed, but the situation poses a continued threat to consumers.

On or Before 45 Calendar Days

This priority applies only to Home and Community Support Services Agency Joint

Commission, Community Health Accreditation Program, or Accreditation Commission for Health Care deemed agencies with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services regional

office authorization.

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has a low potential for more than minimal harm or physical, mental, or

psychosocial harm that did not directly impact consumer or resident health and safety and functional status; this priority may also be assigned for alleged violations of regulations

that do not directly impact consumer or resident health and safety.

On or Before 45 Working Days

The allegation(s) asserts that one or more of the following exist:

Noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification that has a low potential for more than minimal harm or resulted in physical, mental, or psychosocial harm that did not directly impact consumer health and safety

Financial insolvency without alleged impact on consumers

Inaccurate clinical records

On or Before 90 Working Days

The complaint allegation(s) asserts that an agency is providing home health services

(hiring and sending out nurses to provide skilled nursing services or hiring and sending out aides to provide personal assistance services) without a license.

Next On-site

This priority replaced “on or before 120 working days” during FY 2008. The complaint

allegation(s) asserts that one or more of the following exist:

Discharge without proper notice

Illegal remuneration (i.e., solicitation or kickbacks)

Personal assistance services not being provided when the situation does not pose a serious threat to the consumer’s health and safety

Consumer rights violations

Billing irregularities

Desk Review

The regulatory agency uses desk reviews for off-site investigation of home and community support services agency self-reported incidents. If further investigation is warranted to

ensure compliance with federal, state, or local laws, regional staff schedule an on-site investigation. Whether investigation is by desk review or on-site, it must be completed on or before 120 working days.

Page 172: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Withdrawn

A complaint report filed with the state is withdrawn at the request of the complainant, except when abuse, neglect or exploitation is alleged. Please refer to Survey and

Certification Clarification 15-01 (https://www.dads.state.tx.us/providers/communications/2015/scc/SCC2015-01.pdf).

Page 173: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Not Applicable

The state determines it has no jurisdiction to investigate a complaint or a referral, or when a report to another agency, board, or entity is required.

Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with an Intellectual Disability or

Related Conditions (ICFs/IID) Section

Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with an Intellectual Disability or Related Conditions (ICFs/IID) Actions

The table on page 124 contains information relating to Texas Health and Safety Code, Title 4, Subtitle B, Chapter 252, Intermediate Care Facilities, for licensed intermediate care

facility for individuals with an intellectual disability or related conditions actions, by category, for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Administrative Penalties

Basis for imposing

The long-term care regulatory agency can assess an administrative penalty against a facility that violates Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252, or a rule, standard, or order adopted, or license issued, under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252.

Imposed

An action can be recommended by:

The regional survey or investigation team and supported during enforcement review

Regional or state office regulatory staff, considering the survey or investigation findings or evaluating the facility’s past history or performance

The state imposes the action when the administrative penalty recommendation has been reviewed and confirmed by state office staff. The facility is formally notified of the

administrative penalty citation and the penalty amount. Additionally, the notice includes information about the appeal process available to the facility.

Assessed

Penalties assessed are the final actions after the appeal process has been completed (or

an agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount and due date have been decided, or the person accepts the determination by the state agency or fails to respond

to the notice letter in a timely manner. The facility is notified of the amount to be paid and the date payment is due. A lump-sum payment or a monthly payment plan can be agreed upon during the appeal or settlement process.

Injunctive/Other Relief and Civil Penalties

Injunctive/other relief and civil penalty cases are referred to the Office of the Attorney

General for action. When a case is resolved through settlement, a portion of the payment is designated a civil penalty and normally deposited to general revenue. The Office of the Attorney General receives the portion designated as attorney fees and costs.

One or more survey or investigative visits may result in a recommendation for civil penalties for a facility depending on the findings. These visits are generally consolidated

into one case per facility for referral.

A civil penalty may be awarded if the facility violates a licensing rule and the stat determines that the violation creates a threat to the health and safety of a resident.

Page 183: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Amelioration of Violations

In certain situations, the commissioner of the agency can allow, in lieu of demanding payment of an administrative penalty, the use (under the supervision of the agency) of

any portion of the penalty to ameliorate the violation or to improve services (other than administrative services) in the facility affected by the violation.

Trusteeships

The state regulatory agency, through the Office of the Attorney General, can petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the involuntary appointment or appointment by

agreement of a trustee to operate a facility if one or more of the following conditions exist:

The facility is operating without a license.

The facility’s license has been suspended or revoked.

License suspension or revocation procedures against a facility are pending and an imminent threat to the health and safety of the residents exists.

An emergency exists that presents an immediate threat to the health and safety of the residents.

The facility is closing (whether voluntarily or through an emergency closing order), and arrangements for relocation of the residents to other licensed/certified intermediate care facilities for individuals with an intellectual disability or related conditions or into a waiver program have not been made before closure.

Emergency Suspension and Closing Orders

The state will suspend a facility’s license or order an immediate closing of all or part of the

facility if:

The agency finds that the facility is operating in violation of licensure rules.

The violation creates an immediate threat to the health and safety of a resident.

The order suspending a license or closing a part of a facility is immediately effective on the date the license holder receives written notice or on a later date specified in the order.

This suspension of a license may occur simultaneously with any other enforcement provision available to state regulators. The order is effective for 10 days.

Denials of License

The regulatory agency can deny a facility’s license when the facility does not meet licensure rules or when the facility fails to maintain compliance with these rules on a

continuous basis.

It can deny a facility’s license if an applicant, manager, or affiliate:

Substantially fails to comply with licensure requirements or has violations that posed or pose a serious threat to health and safety, or fails to maintain compliance on a continuous basis.

Aids, abets, or permits a substantial violation of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252.

Fails to submit required information and documents needed to complete the application process or provides false or fraudulent information.

Fails to pay certain fees.

Has had a license revoked, has been debarred or excluded, has an unsatisfied final

Page 184: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

judgment, has been decertified or evicted, has a license suspended, or has a criminal conviction.

Is subject to denial or refusal as described in Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part 1, Chapter 99, Denial or Refund of License.

Revocations of License

The state can revoke a facility’s license if it finds that the license holder has violated the

requirements established under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252 and that violation either jeopardizes the health and safety of residents, is repeated, or is a

substantial violation of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252.

The state also can revoke a facility’s license if the license holder submitted false or

misleading statements in the application for license, used subterfuge or other evasive means to obtain a license, concealed a material fact, or failed to disclose information that would have been the basis for denial, or received monetary or other remuneration from a

person or agency that furnishes services or materials to the facility for a fee.

The revocation of a license may occur simultaneously with any other enforcement

provision available to the state.

24 Total intermediate care facilities for individuals with an intellectual disability or related conditions

administrative penalties imposed.

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the state has reviewed and confirmed the

administrative penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if there is no alternative

amount resulting from an appeal held or if no settlement agreement is reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount of penalty due after the appeal process has been completed (or an

agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or if the person charged consents

to the penalty or does not respond timely to the notice of the penalty.

3. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid to the state.

4. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. These amounts do not necessarily reflect the final

amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated settlement. Since

these amounts may change, there is no total for this column. An administrative penalty with a negative balance

may indicate an overpayment or that the penalty was rescinded after payment.

5. The “H” column stands for Hearing, and a “Y” in this column indicates the facility requested a hearing on the

violation. Once a facility requests and meets the criteria for a hearing on the violation, the case results will be

pending until the appeal process is complete. An “N” indicates the facility did not request a hearing.

Intermediate Care Facilities for Individuals with an Intellectual Disability or

Related Conditions Complaint and Incident Intakes

Complaints

A complaint allegation is an assertion that a requirement of state licensure or federal

certification has been violated and can come directly from individuals or residents, family members, health care providers, advocates, law enforcement, or other state agencies.

Report sources can be oral or written.

Incidents

An incident is an official notification to the state survey agency by the facility owner,

administrator, designee, or any employee of the facility who has cause to believe that the physical or mental health of an individual has been or may be adversely affected by

abuse, neglect, exploitation, or other unusual events or occurrences in accordance with Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 252; 40 Texas Administrative Code §90.212(b) (1) or the Memorandum of Understanding between DADS and the Texas Department of Family

and Protective Services.

Priority Assignment

The regulatory agency’s complaint intake unit evaluates each complaint based on its unique circumstances and assigns priorities accordingly. When timeliness is crucial to the health and safety of a consumer(s), such as imminent transfer or discharge, heating or air

conditioner equipment failure, alleged staff walkout, etc., an investigation can be initiated immediately by telephone, regardless of the priority code assignment. After the initial

telephone contact, an on-site visit is conducted according to the time frame specified by the priority assignment. The priorities available for an intermediate care facilities for individuals with an intellectual disability or related conditions facility are:

On or before 24 hours

On or before 14 calendar days

On or before 45 calendar days

Professional review

Financial

Withdrawn

Not required

On or Before 24 Hours

Immediate response by the state is warranted because a provider allegedly created or

allowed a present and ongoing situation in which the provider’s noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has failed to protect consumers from abuse,

neglect, or mistreatment or has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death.

On or Before 14 Calendar Days

The present or ongoing threat of continued abuse, neglect, or mistreatment has been

removed. The consumer(s) is no longer in imminent danger; however, the provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification may have or has a high potential to cause harm that impacts a consumer’s mental, physical, or

psychosocial status and is of such consequence that a rapid response by the state survey agency is indicated. There is evidence or suspicion that system(s) failure contributed to or

Page 191: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

brought on the threat. Usually, specific rather than general information (e.g., descriptive

identifiers, individual names, date, time, location of occurrence, description of harm) will factor into the assignment of this level of priority.

Page 192: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

On or Before 45 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has a low potential for more than minimal harm or resulted in physical,

mental, or psychosocial harm that did not directly impact consumer health and safety and functional status. This priority also can be assigned for alleged violations of regulations

that do not directly impact consumer health and safety.

Professional Review

A professional review priority is assigned by Complaint Intake Call Center staff when a provider self-reports an incident to the state in accordance with Texas Health and Safety

Code Chapter 252, 40 Texas Administrative Code §90.213 or 40 Texas Administrative Code §90.225 when the provider’s incident report indicates the provider’s immediate corrective action is reasonably likely to ensure the safety of individuals while the provider

conducts its investigation and a Professional Quality Assurance staff reviews the provider’s written investigation report.

Based on review of the facility investigation report, if further investigation is warranted to assess whether the provider complies with regulatory requirements, professional review

staff will change the priority and send notification to the regulatory regional staff to schedule an on-site investigation.

Financial

These investigations involve complaint allegations related to a consumer not having access to their trust funds, failure to maintain trust funds for consumers, or failure to

transfer or release trust funds when a consumer is discharged or deceased.

Withdrawn

A complaint report filed with the state is withdrawn at the request of the complainant, except when harm to a resident alleged. Please refer to Survey and Certification Clarification 15-01

(https://www.dads.state.tx.us/providers/communications/2015/scc/SCC2015-01.pdf).

Not Required

The state determines it has no jurisdiction to investigate a complaint or a referral, or a report to another agency, board, or entity is required.

Nursing Facility (NF) Section

Nursing Facility (NF) Actions

The table on page 137 contains information relating to Texas Health and Safety Code, Title 4, Subtitle B, Chapter 242, Convalescent and Nursing Homes and Related Institutions,

nursing facility actions, by category, for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Administrative Penalties

The long-term care regulatory agency can assess administrative penalties for each violation of the statutes or rules, including each violation found in a single survey. A violation that is the subject of a penalty is presumed to continue on each successive day

until it is corrected. The date of correction alleged by the facility in its written plan of correction will be presumed to be the actual date of correction unless it is later determined

by the state that the correction was not made by that day or was not satisfactory.

The state regulatory agency can impose an administrative penalty against:

An applicant for a license

A license holder

A partner, officer, director, or managing employee of an applicant or a license holder

A person who controls a nursing facility

Basis for Imposing

The long-term care regulatory agency can impose an administrative penalty when a facility licensed under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242, fails to meet specified

rules and requirements found in Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part 1, Chapter 19, Nursing Facility Requirements for Licensure and Medicaid Certification. The agency can

assess an administrative penalty against a person who:

Violates Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242 or a rule, standard, or order adopted, or license issued, under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242.

Makes a false statement, that the person knows or should know is false, of a material fact:

o On an application for issuance or renewal of a license or in an attachment to the

application.

o With respect to a matter under investigation by the state regulatory agency.

Refuses to allow a representative of the agency to inspect:

o A book, record, or file required to be maintained by a facility.

o Any portion of the premises of a facility.

Willfully interferes with the work of a representative of the state agency or the enforcement of this chapter.

Willfully interferes with a representative of the state preserving evidence of a violation of a rule, standard or order adopted, or license issued, under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242.

Fails to pay a penalty assessed by the state under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242, by the 10th day after the date the assessment of the penalty becomes final.

Fails to notify the state regulatory agency of a change of ownership before the effective date of the change of ownership.

Page 197: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

No facility will be penalized because of a physician’s or consultant’s nonperformance

beyond the facility’s control or if documentation clearly indicates the violation is beyond the facility’s control.

Imposed

An action can be recommended by:

The regional survey or investigation team and supported during enforcement review.

Regional or state office regulatory staff, considering the survey or investigation findings or evaluating the facility’s history and performance.

The state imposes the action when the administrative penalty recommendation has been

reviewed and confirmed by state office staff. The facility is formally notified of the administrative penalty citation, the penalty amount and the due date. Additionally, the notice includes information about the appeal process available to the facility.

Assessed

Penalties assessed are the final actions after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement to settle has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or the facility consents to the administrative penalty, fails to respond to the state agency’s notice

letter in a timely manner, or fails to correct the violation to the state’s satisfaction. The facility is notified of the amount to be paid and the date payment is due. A lump-sum

payment or a monthly payment plan can be agreed upon during the appeal or settlement process.

Injunctive/Other Relief and Civil Penalties

The long-term care regulatory agency refers injunctive/other relief and civil penalty cases to the Office of the Attorney General for action. A civil penalty may be awarded if a facility

violates a licensing rule and the state survey agency determines the violation threatens the health and safety of a resident. When a case is resolved through settlement, a portion

of the payment is designated a civil penalty and normally deposited to general revenue. The Office of the Attorney General collects attorney fees and costs for civil penalty cases.

One or more survey or investigative visits for a facility can be referred for civil penalty.

These multiple visits are generally consolidated into one case per facility for referral.

Amelioration of Violations

In certain situations, the commissioner of the state agency can allow, in lieu of demanding payment of an administrative penalty, the use (under the supervision of the agency) of any portion of the penalty to ameliorate the violation or to improve services (other than

administrative services) in the facility affected by the violation.

Trusteeships

The state regulatory agency, through the Office of the Attorney General, can petition a court of competent jurisdiction for the involuntary appointment of a trustee to operate a facility if one or more of the following conditions exist:

The facility is operating without a license.

The facility’s license has been suspended or revoked.

License suspension or revocation procedures against a facility are pending and an imminent threat to the health and safety of the residents exists.

Page 198: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

An emergency exists that presents an immediate threat to the health and safety of the residents.

The facility is closing and arrangements for relocation of the residents to other licensed institutions have not been made before closure.

Emergency Suspension and Closing Orders

The state can suspend a facility’s license or order an immediate closing of all or part of the facility if:

It finds the facility is operating in violation of licensure rules.

The violation creates an immediate threat to the health and safety of a resident.

The order suspending a license or closing a part of a facility is immediately effective on the date the license holder receives a written notice or on a later date specified in the order.

This suspension of a license may occur simultaneously with any other enforcement provision available to the state. The order is valid for 10 days.

Suspension of Admissions

If the state agency finds that a facility has committed an act for which a civil penalty can be imposed under Texas Health and Safety Code §242.065, the commissioner can order

the facility to immediately suspend admissions.

Denial of Payment for New Admissions

To participate in the Medicare or Medicaid program, or both, long-term care facilities must be certified as meeting federal participation requirements. Long-term care facilities include skilled nursing facilities for Medicare and nursing facilities for Medicaid. Among the

remedies available to the secretary of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the state under the Social Security Act to address facility noncompliance is

denial of payment for all new Medicare and Medicaid admissions. This remedy may — and in certain instances, must — be imposed by CMS or the state Medicaid agency. Denial of payment for new admissions can be imposed alone or in combination with other remedies

to encourage quick compliance.

Denial of License

The state can deny a facility’s license when the facility does not meet licensure rules or when the facility does not have a satisfactory history of compliance with state and federal nursing facility regulations.

It can deny a facility’s license if the applicant or controlling party:

Does not have a satisfactory history of compliance.

Fails to submit required information and documents needed to complete the application process.

Has had a license revoked, has allowed a license to expire or surrendered a license when revocation action was pending, has been debarred or excluded, has an unsatisfied final judgment, has been decertified or evicted, has had a license suspended, or has a criminal conviction.

Violated Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242 or a rule, standard, or order adopted, or license issued, under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242, in either a repeated or substantial manner, or aids, abets, or permits a substantial violation of Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242.

condition.

Is subject to denial or refusal as described in Texas Administrative Code, Title 40, Part 1, Chapter 99, Denial or Refusal of License.

Revocation of License

The state can revoke a license if the license holder (or other person described in Texas

Health and Safety Code §242.032(d)):

Violated Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242 or a rule, standard, or order adopted, or license issued, under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 242, in either a repeated or substantial manner.

Committed any act described by Texas Health and Safety Code §242.066(a)(2)-(6).

Failed to comply with Texas Health and Safety Code §242.074.

The revocation of a license can occur simultaneously with any other enforcement provision available to the state.

Civil Money Penalties

To participate in the Medicare or Medicaid program, or both, long-term care facilities must be certified as meeting federal participation requirements. Long-term care facilities include

skilled nursing facilities for Medicare and nursing facilities for Medicaid. Among the remedies available to the secretary of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and the state under the Social Security Act to address facility noncompliance is a

civil money penalty (CMP). CMPs can be imposed to remedy noncompliance at amounts not to exceed $10,000 per day. The statute additionally permits the secretary and the

state to impose a CMP for past instances of noncompliance even if a facility is in compliance at the time of a current survey. In accordance with Code of Federal

Regulations, Title 42, Chapter IV, Subchapter G, Part 488, Subpart F, Section 488.436, CMPs: waiver of hearing, reduction of penalty amount, if the facility waives the right to a hearing, in writing, within 60 days from the date of the notice imposing the civil money

penalty, CMS or the state reduces the civil money penalty amount by 35 percent.

Federal regulations allow for penalties to be imposed, in $50 increments, in the following

amounts:

$3,050 to $10,000 per day for deficiencies constituting immediate jeopardy

$50 to $3,000 per day when immediate jeopardy does not exist, but the violation either caused actual harm or caused no actual harm but has the potential for more than minimal harm

CMS and the state regulatory agency can also impose penalties on a “per-instance” basis of noncompliance; the penalties range between $1,000 to $10,000 per instance.

In determining the amount of penalty, CMS or the state must take into account:

The facility’s history of noncompliance, including repeated deficiencies

The facility’s financial condition

The factors specified in 42 CFR §488.404 (regarding the seriousness of the deficiency)

The facility’s degree of culpability

Page 200: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

CMS can impose CMPs against Medicare or Medicare/Medicaid-certified nursing facilities.

The state can impose CMPs only against Medicaid-certified nursing facilities.

3. DADS may propose to deny renewal of a license for many reasons. However, if a

facility has been cited for one or more violations of the licensing rules and those

violations have not been determined to have been corrected by the date the facility’s

license is due for renewal, DADS may propose to deny the application. If the facility

subsequently corrects the violation(s), DADS may withdraw its proposal to deny the

application for license renewal. Denied actions may also include final actions on cases

proposed in a previous fiscal year.

4. Revoked actions may include final actions on cases proposed in a previous fiscal year.

5. Assessed civil money penalties can include final actions on penalties imposed in a

previous fiscal year.

56 nursing facility administrative penalties imposed.

Page 207: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the state has reviewed and confirmed the administrative

penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if no alternative amount results from an appeal

held or settlement agreement reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount due after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement to settle

has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or the facility consents to the administrative penalty,

fails to respond to the agency’s notice letter in a timely manner, or fails to correct the violation to the agency’s

satisfaction.

3. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid to the state.

4. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. These amounts do not necessarily reflect the final

amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated settlement. Since these

amounts may change, there is no total for this column. An administrative penalty with a negative balance may

indicate an overpayment or that the penalty was rescinded after payment.

5. The “H” column stands for hearing, and a “Y” in this column indicates the facility requested a hearing on the

violation. Once a facility requests and meets the criteria for a hearing on the violation, the case results will be pending until the appeal process is complete. An “N” indicates no hearing was requested by the facility.

294 Total nursing facility civil money penalties imposed.

Notes:

1. The imposed column is the total amount of penalty after the review and confirmation of the civil money penalty citation and amount. This is the amount due and payable if no alternative amount results from an appeal held or if

no settlement agreement reached.

2. The assessed column is the amount due after the appeal process has been completed (or an agreement to settle

has been reached) and a final amount has been decided, or the facility consents to the administrative penalty, fails to respond to the department’s notice letter in a timely manner, or fails to correct the violation to the department’s satisfaction.

3. The Y/N Waiver column has a “Y” if the facility requested to waive appeal rights in order to receive a 35 percent reduction in the amount of the civil money penalty. An “N” indicates the facility did not request to waive its

appeal rights.

4. The waiver 35% amount is the total amount of the penalty due if the facility chose to waive its appeal rights in order to receive a 35 percent reduction.

5. The collected column is the amount of money the facility has paid.

6. The balance column is the amount of penalty the facility owes. The amount in this column does not necessarily reflect the final amount the facility may owe. The amounts can change based on a hearing or negotiated

settlement. Since these amounts may change, there is no total for this column.

7. The “IA” column indicates the imposing authority. An “F” (federal) appears for Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services-imposed penalties and an “S” (state) appears for state-imposed penalties. The state imposes civil money

penalties on Medicaid-only facilities.

Nursing Facility Complaint and Incident Intakes

Complaints

A complaint is any allegation received by the state regulatory agency other than an

incident reported by the facility. Such allegations include, but are not limited to, abuse, neglect, exploitation, or violation of state or federal standards and can be reported by

residents, family members or others.

Incidents

An incident is an official notification to the state survey agency from a nursing facility

provider that the physical or mental health or welfare of a resident has been or might be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect, or abuse. These reports also include injuries

of unknown source and exploitation or misappropriation of resident property.

Priority Assignment

The regulatory agency’s intake unit evaluates each complaint or incident based on its

unique circumstances and assigns priorities accordingly. When timeliness is crucial to the health and safety of a resident(s), such as in a situation of heating or air conditioner

equipment failure, alleged staff walkout, etc., an investigation can be initiated immediately by telephone, regardless of the priority code assignment. After the initial telephone contact, an on- site visit is conducted according to the timeframe specified by

the priority assignment. The priorities available for a nursing facility are:

On or before 24 hours

On or before 14 calendar days

On or before 30 calendar days

On or before 45 calendar days

Professional review

Financial (Medicaid facilities only)

Withdrawn

Not required

On or Before 24 Hours

Immediate response by the state agency is warranted because a provider allegedly

created or allowed a present and ongoing situation in which the provider’s noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification has failed to protect residents

from abuse, neglect, or mistreatment or has caused, or is likely to cause, serious injury, harm, impairment, or death to a resident.

On or Before 14 Calendar Days

The present or ongoing threat of continued abuse, neglect, or mistreatment has been

removed. The resident is no longer in imminent danger; however, the provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or certification may have or has a high potential to cause harm that impacts a resident’s mental, physical, or

psychosocial status and is of such consequence that a rapid response by the state is indicated. There is evidence or suspicion that system(s) failure contributed to or brought

on the threat. Usually, specific rather than general information (e.g., descriptive identifiers, individual names, date, time, location of occurrence, description of harm) will factor into the assignment of this level of priority.

Page 246: Introduction and Overview - Texas Health and Human ... · Health care quality, which regulates acute health care facilities such as hospitals and dialysis centers and transferred

On or Before 30 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or

certification has caused or may cause harm that is of limited consequence and does not significantly impair the resident’s mental, physical, or psychosocial status.

On or Before 45 Calendar Days

A provider’s alleged noncompliance with one or more requirements of licensure or

certification has a low potential for more than minimal harm or resulted in physical, mental, or psychosocial harm that did not directly affect consumer or resident health and

safety and functional status. This priority also can be assigned for alleged violations of regulations that do not directly impact resident health and safety.

Professional Review

A provider who has cause to believe that the physical or mental health or welfare of a

resident has been or may be adversely affected by mistreatment, neglect, or abuse must self-report to the state survey agency immediately upon learning of the alleged conduct or conditions. This notice could include injuries of unknown source and exploitation/

misappropriation of resident property.

Complaint and incident intake unit staff assign a professional review priority when a

provider self- reports an incident and indicates that the provider’s immediate corrective action is reasonably likely to ensure that abuse, neglect, mistreatment, or injury to the resident will not occur again, or at least not while the provider conducts its investigation

and an intake specialist reviews the provider’s written investigation report.

Based on review of the facility investigation report, if further investigation is warranted to

assess whether the provider’s abuse prohibition policies ensure compliance with regulatory requirements, the intake unit will send notification to regulatory regional staff to schedule an on-site investigation.

Financial (Medicaid Facilities Only)

These investigations involve complaint allegations related to a Medicaid-certified nursing facility’s failure to appropriately manage resident trust funds or applied income, or failure to reimburse prorated refunds due to a resident when the resident is admitted to a

Medicaid bed or has been discharged.

Withdrawn

A complaint report filed with the state is withdrawn at the request of the complainant, except when abuse, neglect, or exploitation is alleged. Please refer to Survey and

Certification Clarification 15-01 (https://www.dads.state.tx.us/providers/communications/2015/scc/SCC2015-01.pdf).

Not Required

The state determines it has no jurisdiction to investigate a complaint or a referral, or a

report to another agency, board, or entity is required.

Contracts

The tables below contain information relating to the Home and Community-based

Services and Texas Home Living waiver programs, by category, for fiscal year (FY) 2017.

Vendor Hold

If the state regulatory agency determines that the program provider is not in compliance

at the end of the follow-up review, it places a vendor hold on payments due to the program provider. The state conducts a second on-site follow-up review between 30 and

45 calendar days after the effective date of the vendor hold.

Denial of Certification

If the state determines that the program provider is not in compliance at the end of the

follow-up review to vendor hold, it denies certification of the program provider and recommends termination of its waiver program provider agreement.

The state can deny certification of a program provider’s contract if there is a hazard to the health, safety, or welfare of residents and the hazard is not eliminated before the end of any review, or based on a program provider’s serious or pervasive noncompliance with

one or more of the program principles.

Home and Community-based Services and Texas Home Living Complaints and Referrals

Complaints

Complaints are received by the regulatory complaint and incident intake unit. If it determines regulatory action is required, the complaint is referred to regulatory staff,

which reviews the complaint to determine follow-up actions.

The actions are determined by:

The severity of the complaint

The number and severity of other complaints received about that program provider

The pattern and trends of any reported abuse, neglect, or exploitation associated with the program provider

The performance of the program provider on certification reviews

Desk Review

The state regulatory agency completes a desk review of the complaint if it is determined

that there is low risk to those served by that program provider. The determination of low risk is made if the complaint did not involve issues that relate to the health or safety of

those served and if contact with the program provider indicates the situation has been satisfactorily resolved.

On-Site Visit

The state conducts an on-site visit if there is significant risk to the clients involved in the complaint. If the program provider is found to be out of compliance with one or more

program principles, the results are recorded in a certification review.
