BILL ANALYSIS Ó SB 91 Page 1 SENATE THIRD READING SB 91 (Budget and Fiscal Review Committee) As Amended July 12, 2011 Majority vote. Budget Bill Appropriation Takes Effect Immediately SENATE VOTE :Vote not relevant SUMMARY : Contains necessary technical corrections as a result of new policy adopted in the budget trailer bill, AB 97 (Budget Committee), Chapter 3, Statutes of 2011. Specifically, this bill : 1)Delinks licensure from Medi-Cal certification for adult day health care centers (ADHCs). Current law requires ADHCs to be certified Medi-Cal providers as a condition of licensure. AB 97, eliminated adult day health care as a Medi-Cal optional benefit. This bill delinks certification and licensure. 2)Permits ADHCs to operate "adult day programs," for individuals who do not require on-site medical care, without obtaining an additional social services license. Specifies that: a) The ADHC is to provide notice to the state; b) An on-site inspection will not be required; and, c) The local fire authority shall determine capacity limits. 3)Adds an appropriation allowing this bill to take effect immediately upon enactment.
