What this bill would do

This bill, known as the "Long-Term Care Transparency Act," proposes to amend the Older Americans Act of 1965. The primary goal is to require new reporting requirements regarding State Long-Term Care Ombudsman Programs. Under this act, the Assistant Secretary would be required to submit annual reports to specific committees in both the Senate and the House of Representatives. These reports must aggregate all reports submitted under section 712(h) for the year. Additionally, the report must provide a summary of the findings from those reports.
