LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 1732, as introduced, Flora.
Health facility licensing.
Existing law requires the State Department of Public Health to license and regulate specified health facilities, including general acute care hospitals, acute psychiatric hospitals, and skilled nursing facilities, among other health facilities. Existing law prohibits a person, firm, partnership, association, corporation, political subdivision of the state, or other governmental agency within the state from continuing to operate, conduct, or maintain an existing health facility without applying for and obtaining a license or a special permit.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to that provision.
