Summary of New York Assembly Bill A 3567

Overview

A 3567 would authorize one or more demonstration projects to permit a managed long-term care (MLTC) plan to enroll persons who are permanently placed in a nursing home located in rural areas. The bill is currently listed with an ENACTING CLAUSE STRICKEN, indicating it did not advance to enactment in its current form.

Purpose and intent

  • Create demonstration programs to test whether MLTC plans can enroll rural, permanently housed nursing home residents.
  • Explore potential care coordination, service delivery, and purchasing arrangements for this population within MLTC frameworks.

Key provisions (as stated in bill title and actions)

  • Authorization of one or more demonstration projects.
  • Eligibility focus on persons who are permanently placed in a nursing home in rural areas.
  • Allow MLTC plans to enroll these individuals under the demonstration framework.
  • Details on program design, oversight, duration, funding, eligibility criteria, and evaluation metrics are not included in the provided summary and would appear in the bill text.

Who would be affected

  • Rural nursing home residents who are permanently placed in facilities.
  • Managed long-term care plans that participate in the demonstration.
  • Rural nursing homes and possibly their administrators, staff, and residents’ families.
  • State health authorities overseeing LTC programs (likely the department responsible for MLTC oversight).

Procedural and timeline aspects

  • Introduced: January 28, 2025.
  • Legislative actions show: referred to Health on January 28, 2025.
  • Later actions list ENACTING CLAUSE STRICKEN on September 8, 2025 (duplicated in the record), indicating the bill did not advance to enactment in its current form.
  • Related companion and prior-session bills exist (see below), but none are noted as enacted here.

Related legislation

  • Primary sponsor: Billy Jones.
  • Related bills (prior sessions): A 10688, A 2996, A 882, A 2437.
  • Companion bills: S 547 (listed as a companion; two entries in the record).
  • These related measures suggest ongoing interest in MLTC enrollment strategies for nursing home residents, including rural populations.

Potential impact and considerations

  • If enacted, the demonstration projects could provide data on the feasibility, costs, and outcomes of integrating rural nursing home residents into MLTC plans.
  • Could influence policy on where MLTC enrollment is appropriate and how care is coordinated for long-term residents in rural settings.
  • As the current status shows the enacting clause was stricken, the bill would not become law in this form without further action or reintroduction.

Note: The summary reflects information available in the provided bill note. Full text would specify program design, funding, duration, evaluation criteria, and enforceable requirements.
