Licensing violation actions against chapter 245D providers modified, and reports required.

This bill modifies how the state handles licensing violations for home and community-based services providers in Minnesota. It ensures that penalties and corrective orders apply only to the specific service site or license where violations occurred, rather than automatically affecting all sites or licenses held by the same organization. The legislation also introduces new requirements for the Department of Human Services, including offering legal assistance, partnering with culturally specific organizations for training, and providing alternative dispute resolution services. Additionally, the bill mandates annual reports starting in 2025 that track enforcement actions and include data on the race and ethnicity of providers facing violations.
