LB 1057 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Redefine adult day service under the Health Care Facility Licensure Act

LB 1057 amends Nebraska's Health Care Facility Licensure Act to clarify the definition of "adult day service." It specifies that this service involves community-based care for four or more people with age or functional impairments for less than 24 hours daily. The bill explicitly excludes community-based waiver services provided by entities certified under the Developmental Disabilities Services Act or PACE centers from this definition. This change directly affects facilities seeking licensure under the Act by determining which services fall under its regulatory scope.
