Certified nursing facility education initiative. Authorizes the Board of Medical Assistance Services (Board), assisted by the Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS), to administer education initiatives for certified nursing facilities. The Director of DMAS shall contract with a nonprofit organization for early on-site training and assistance to promote quality of care in such facilities. Competitive procurement shall not apply. Such nonprofit organization shall be governed by a board of directors composed of the Director of DMAS, or his designee, a representative from the Virginia Department of Health, a representative from the Department of Social Services' Adult Protective Services Unit, a representative from the Office of the State Long-Term Care Ombudsman, and representatives from the consumer, long-term care provider, and business communities. The board of directors shall report on accomplishments, priorities, and activities of the nonprofit organization and submit a strategic plan to the Board, the Governor and the General Assembly. Funding to initially implement the nonprofit organization shall be from civil money penalty funds, and thereafter such organization shall be self-sustaining. Funding for services shall come from charges to nursing facilities, from general appropriations, and from civil money penalty funds. Civil money penalty funds are those funds collected by the DMAS for enforcement of nursing facility remedies pursuant to Title XIX of the Social Security Act.
