What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill conforms state law for instructional programs for nurse aides to the
federal law requirements for Medicare and Medicaid. Specifically, the bill prohibits
the Department of Health Services from requiring an instructional program to
exceed the federal required minimum total training hours or minimum hours of
supervised practical training, which is clinical experience, specified in the federal
regulation. The current federal regulation requires no less than 75 hours of training
with at least 16 of those hours being supervised practical training.
