A 1894: Repeals section 3372 of the public health law

This bill repeals a requirement in New York's public health law that previously mandated healthcare providers to report patients' drug use to authorities.

The bill removes this specific reporting obligation with no new mechanisms or provisions added. As a procedural repeal, it solely eliminates the existing legal requirement without creating new policies. The bill was enacted after passing both legislative chambers and receiving the Governor's signature in October 2025.

A 2027: Requires medical evaluations for assisted living eligibility to be conducted within thirty days prior to the date of admission

This bill (2027) requires that medical evaluations determining a person's eligibility for assisted living must be completed within 30 days before their admission date. It directly affects individuals applying for assisted living facilities by mandating recent assessments to confirm their physical, supervisory, and psycho-social needs can be met. The key provision specifies that evaluations must be signed by a physician, physician assistant, or nurse practitioner. This change ensures assessments are current and relevant at the time of admission, replacing previous requirements with a strict 30-day window. The law became effective immediately upon the governor's signature (Chap. 444).
